Leaving San Francisco isn’t going to be easy. I love this city and will miss everything about it. I remember the first day I moved here. I stepped out onto the stoop of my apartment building, looked around and decided there was nowhere in the world I would rather be…then I found Orvieto. Italy. In the next three months I am going to enjoy every single minute of my life here, appreciate all the things San Francisco and Marin County have to offer, and say good-bye with no regrets…
….Goodbye deYoung Museum.
August 4, 2012: Jean Paul Gaultier at the deYoung Museum, Golden Gate Park
I exited the Jean Paul Gaultier Exhibition at the DeYoung Museum today flabbergasted. I am shattered by Gaultier’s genius. I’ve never seen clothes so beautiful, expressions so unfiltered, gowns so outrageously sublime, outfits so over-the-top delightful. Each one was lovely and funny and smart and more incredible than the next. His masterpieces are astonishing. I wonder if Jean Paul Gaultier knows how brilliant he is? I think so.
