I checked the Wessel photos during the Picasso show preview, it took the NYT to remind me. Black and white isn't so much my thing, some of it was ok. Still, it beat out the dull Picasso paintings haha, such a hater

I remember a series on suburban houses ("house pictures", hello color) that was pretty amazing, as well as those iconic gas stations (kinda popular)


This SF picture is one of my favorites actually. I think they're waiting for the bus (the 14?), downtown. Oh word, he lives here and is on faculty at the SFAI. I was just there last week

Admission to MOMA is free today (first Tuesday of the month), $12.50 regular, $7 student (most basic membership is $75 a year)
