Very grateful to have gone to the Tamara de Lempicka exhibition at the de Young on its closing day.

Photo of Lety and the Creature Mastodon stuffed toy standing in front of the Tamara de Lempicka exhibition's window display at de Young Museum. From top to bottom, Lety is seen wearing a tight gray sweater with slits at the shoulder, a floral pink thigh-high skirt, black leggings, and brown boots. She's standing with her back to the dark, ten-foot-tall glass walls of the museum, between “TAMARA DE LEMPICKA” in giant signage and a bust cropping of Lempicka's “Young Woman in Green” with “Oct 12, 2024 - Feb 9, 2025” printed onto the corner. Lety's holding the Creature in front of her lap as she smiles at the camera. Both she and the Creature have a little “Young Woman in Green” sticker on their chests as proof of entry to the exhibit.

There's an exhibition of the works of Tamara de #Lempicka at the #DeYoung that I'd like to visit but they are charging seniors $32/person just to look at the exhibit.

Then there's the $20 general admission fee to the museum (except on Saturdays which is free) plus about $20 for parking plus about $35 for gas to drive 140 miles into/out of The City plus $17.75 for tolls (because I drive over the SR & GG bridges to get into The City) for a total cost, just for me of about $125 just to drive into The City to see it. Up that to about $180 for 2. And that doesn't include lunch at the museum (which is awful & overpriced) or elsewhere outside of the park. 🤦‍♂️

Hmmm??? 🤔

Guess I'll just view her work for free on the Net. 🤷‍♂️

I have a large framed poster of her painting entitled "Adam & Eve" hanging above the open stairway in my house. Just love looking at every time that I walk up & down the stairs for free as well.

I'd buy more examples of her work if I had more wall space but unfortunately I don't.

A porcelain sculpture titled 'Sideboard,' created by contemporary artist Chris Antemann (https://chrisantemann.com), features an intimate couple perched sensuously on a sideboard, surrounded by tempting desserts and fruits. The female figure, gazes provocatively at another woman on the opposite side, exuding an air of intrigue and desire.
