Art IS everywhere!

I just saw this "Rock Arch" in the parking lot of a Beverly Hills Radiology office. Something to contemplate while you're waiting for your X-rays, I guess.

The other is more "officially" art. It stands in front of the new BCAM at LACMA! Short for the Broad Contemporary Art Museum at the Los Angeles Contemporary Museum of Art (!!!!) Bcam has not generally been well received. Its sort of an "annex" that still feels like one. And the "Broad" in BCAM refers to developer, ELI BROAD, who, um, backed out of actually donating the Broad art to the Broad Museum.
Art is Show Business for the filthy rich! Anyway the above installation by artist CHRIS BURDEN shows over 200 restored street lamps that are arresting by day & positively glorious by night!
