Andy Warhol: Revisited

My Dad used to drive a Silver Shadow just like Andy Warhol.  I think that makes my Dad iconic too.

The kids had Friday off in honor of Caesar Chavez so we drove over the hill to Santa Monica in the late afternoon to Revolver Gallery to view Andy Warhol:Revisited 30 Years Later.  Bergamont Station has become a cultivated community of art galleries geared toward art lovers who want that one-stop viewing experience.  Where have I been?? I seriously don't get out enough.

David met us there after work so we were able to make it a complete family outing.  Seeing him is the best part of my day.

Kids always gravitate toward screening rooms.

They're people watchers.  Must get it from Dad...and Mom.

Andy and Portia have one thing in common - SHOES.

Not sure if pop art is my favorite art period but I love the idea of taking American popular culture and elevating it to museum status art.  Plus there's no denying how giddy and jovial I feel being surrounded by bright colors and bold statements - Optimism.
