Your Organizer, Priya, sent the following message to some members of South Bay DINKs and SINKs:
Hello everyone!
Work has kept me busy over the past few weeks, so you might have seen a lull in the group's activities. Let's fix that. For our next event, we'll be visiting the de Young museuem in San Francisco.
Van Gogh, Gauguin, Cézanne and Beyond: Post-Impressionist Masterpieces from the Musée d?Orsay is the second of two exhibitions from the Musée d?Orsay?s permanent collection. It follows on the heels of the first with a selection of the most famous late-Impressionist paintings by Claude Monet and Auguste Renoir, as well as works representing the individualist styles of the early modern masters, including Vincent van Gogh, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Paul Gauguin, and the Nabis Pierre Bonnard and Édouard Vuillard.
It is here where the Orsay?s collection shines brightest with masterpieces such as Van Gogh?s Starry Night over the Rhone, a haunting Portrait of the Artist, and Bedroom at Arles. The exhibition includes a superior collection of paintings from the Pont-Aven school, including Gauguin?s masterpiece Self-Portrait with The Yellow Christ. The exhibition concludes with the Orsay?s spectacular collection of pointillist paintings, represented by the masters Georges Seurat and Paul Signac.
I have already bought my ticket and am looking forward to seeing some of these original masterpeices! Let's meet at the cafe at noon, grab a bite to eat and then head off to see the exhibits.
A couple of things to note about the tickets:
Tickets are $20 advance and $25 day-of-visit. Tickets get sold out very fast on the weekends, so please plan in advance, if possible.
Tickets are issued for a specific date and time. Please buy your tickets for 1:00 pm.
