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

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.
Nearly one hundred years after Tamara de Lempicka (1894-1980) first exhibited her work in San Francisco, a sweeping survey of the storied and glamorous artist opens again in the city. This October, at the de Young—part of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco—the show marks the artist’s first U.S. retrospective and illuminates new details about her life. de Lempicka’s bold, stylized figures have become synonymous with the 1920s, an era characterized by opulence, sophistication, and youthful optimism.
