We drove over to Studio City and had lunch at Art’s Delicatessen & Restaurant<\/a> on Ventura Blvd.\u00c2\u00a0 The food was really good – it was nice to find a good deli here.<\/p>\n

We stopped in a small gift shop that’s going out of business and ended up buying a Piero Fornasetti<\/a> self-portrait plate for $80; that’s a good deal!\u00c2\u00a0 Then we stopped at the news stand at Laurel Canyon and Ventura and bought a few magazines.<\/p>\n

Then we drove over to Geographica, a travel bookstore in Burbank.\u00c2\u00a0 We bought a few maps and a book to bring on our upcoming Italian vacation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We decided to go see some of the new art going up for the new season starting this week, so we went to Bergamot Station<\/a> in Santa Monica, which houses a bunch of small galleries.<\/p>\n

There are small lime trees planted along one side of the complex, and there were limes growing; this is probably the first time I’ve seen limes growing on a tree!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In the center of the complex is a tiny park with six palm trees.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We saw three shows I really liked; I’ve scanned in images from the shows below.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Robert Sean Coons, “Forbidden Fruit,” Oil on Canvas at Berman \/ Turner Projects<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Christopher Murphy, “View South from the Williamsburg Bridge,” Oil on Panel, Lora Schlesinger Gallery<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ethan Murrow, “People Who Were There – A Page of Pictures,” Graphite on Paper, Obsolete at D3 Projects<\/a><\/p>\n

They use green, as in environmentally friendly, urinals at Bergamot Station.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On the way out I saw a cool scooter with a box bungie corded to the rear for carrying stuff.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We drove home – I thought the complex next door looked neat in the waning light.<\/p>\n
