Your Daily Photo (Coffee and Cake Are the New Wine and Cheese Edition)

I remember way back, when LACMA would serve wine and cheese at these sort of things. But now it's pastries and coffee. Not that there's anything wrong with that. And they still had a bar present, just in case you wanted to get liqoured up on your own dime.

The reason for all the folks milling about LACMA after closing on a Saturday night was the members preview for their Luis Melendez exhibition. It was very crowded, so will go back later to properly soak in his work. But from the cursory perusal, it's clear that dude could rock the still life (it took years of art history courses to bring you such insightful and eloquent commentary as the previous sentence).
