no big parties, no gifts on the day, no cards (we were away of course) but I did get to go the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. It was brilliant and made me realise how much I miss going to the big art shows which I would regularly see in the UK.
On the day they had a major Matisse exhibition and a show on about photographer, Martin Munkacsi,I had never heard of him before but his work was masterful. We also got see some of the other work the Museum currently has. Some of it I have no time for and I suspect the artist said to themselves at the time "wow, I am being paid for this" well at least I hope so anyway. They had 2 Andy Warhol works which I found I was surprisingly drawn to and one Frida which I was surprised to see as I thought everything would be in Mexico at the moment. All in all we spend 4 hours just browsing the art but still didn't see everything. The Matisse exhibition was brilliant and one of the best curated shows I have seen.
After a quick coffee it was off to China Town again as we had barely touch in the day before. Managed to buy myself a small bracelet, gifts for the kids and just generally marvel at the place again.
