Date at the Museum

Picasso is in town...(well, the exhibit that is). I'm an art history major and always eager to scope out new museum exhibits. When I heard that a collection of Picasso's works from the Musée National Picasso in Paris were coming to Seattle, I jumped at the chance to see this monumental artist's works in person.

My boyfriend and I headed to the SAM (Seattle Art Museum) for a day date. The exhibition was really interesting, they did a nice job at covering the span the art he created throughout the span of his life rather than just focusing on pieces from his most famous period - Cubism. After our day at the museum, we cruised Pike Place Market, and had lunch at one of it's finest bakeries, Le Panier. What a fun Saturday!

I love SAM! I visited this summer while in town for a wedding, and boy was it a nice little museum... I was so impressed. Did you happen to go into the little back room that had a couple Jacob Lawrence pieces? What a gem! The show looks wonderful!

Still haven't decided if I'm going to go or not. It looks good not sure if I want to deal with crowds.
