Contemporary Jewish Museum

It was getting too late in the day to get out to the coast so I decided to go to the Contemporary Jewish Museum. And I'm really glad I did. Two really good exhibitions "Seeing Gertrude Stein" and "Charlotte Salomon: Life? or Theatre?" I could not take pictures of the exhibitions but they were jam packed with work and superbly curated. The ways in which the art was displayed was art itself. The building is a merging of old and new. The newer addition is the off kilter black cube. Inside the cube was a sound sculpture. It felt like a sanctuary.
