Hello blogging world!
I am currently on Spring Break so am taking something of a "brain break" for a few days before diving back into all the readings my professors have given me. The highlight of my break will be my visit to the Norton Simon I am doing in a few days with my mom and grandma! Not only will we be taking in the spectacular collection there, but will be spending a great deal of time in their special exhibit from the Museé d'Orsay which is on at the moment featuring some of the greatest works in Impressionist art. I will try to write a review of the exhibit when we go but just from what is online, I can tell it is going to be something special. If you have a free afternoon, I HIGHLY suggest you make the drive to Pasadena and visit this special museum. It has (in my opinion) a better collection than the Getty and the manner in which they organize and present the art is highly conducive to an enjoyable experience.
Be warned, you will have to reserve timed tickets to get into this exhibition. They do however allow you access to the rest of the museum as well which is nice. Let me know if you end up going and what your thoughts were!
Here is the link for the exhibit
