This is a great post by a mom who works for LACMA. Let's hope that many parents share her attitude about sharing visual culture with their children.

LACMA has a great show up right now, Art of Two Germanys - it's the first traveling exhibition to go on in the new BCAM space.
And if you're in the neighborhood with your kids, be sure to check out the galleries down the street at the 6150 Wilshire complex: Jennifer West's show at Marc Foxx are videos and stills made from 16mm film that has been treated with and dipped in various substances - she uses everything from food to perfume to make her beautiful abstract works.
