Grand architecture, magnificent gardens, and one of kind art

The Getty Center. The building is all modern design with sleek, stark, lines and entangled shadows. All mixed in are the graceful, color filled, sweeping curves of gardens. Then inside, 1000s of pieces of art. They say it is meant to be a family outing place of picnics on the grounds and a quiet cup of coffee on the promenades. It sort of feels that way but it is pretty grandiose….not exactly the laid back that Getty might have wanted it to be. Wonderful none the less. You could spend days here. We took the gardens tour and saw maybe 20% of the exhibits in our one day. It is the kind of thing I can only do in four or five hour spurts…..something to do again.
