On Friday night, John and I attended a fundraiser for the Palm Springs Art Museum, so I thought I'd have some fun with the free-standing sculptures and larger pieces of art. Admittedly corny, the theme of today's Sunday Art Review is "Hiding Within Art". I apologize up front that once again, I forgot to document the titles of each work and the artist names, so I made up the names for this post. (I was too busy chatting and sipping cocktails all night to be taking notes). In this photo, "exhibit A", here I am behind a piece made from metal and hand blown glass. I especially like the free form shape and richness of the gold within this sculpture; it is a remarkable work for sure. While the works in this post may be entitled "Hiding Within Art", it's really not too hard to find me in each photo-I have the same silly pose throughout!

"What a Drag"
There were over 900 attendees in support of the Art Museum that night, not to mention a number of local well known drag queens who perform professionally in a local hotel lounge each week.
It was a fun evening in the art museum, and a great way to introduce the museum to lots of new visitors and guests. Which of the six works of art did you like best? Go ahead, leave a comment, I've waived all comment fees today!
