But it’s not all fun and games for Steph. Goodwill trip be damned, one little 12-year-old girl was not letting Curry have all the slick moves.

Here's a fun Labor Day weekend story… We just decided to add two new members to our Johnson family. Baby French Bulldogs. In my right hand is BRUTUS and in my left hand is HOBBS. Bring them home and immediately take them outside so they can start learning how to "handle their business and potty like big boys". I set them both down and they both take off in a full sprint and fall right into the deep end of our pool. HOBBS immediately starts doggy paddling while BRUTUS (like a brick) sink heads first to the bottom of the pool. Читать дальше...

The set the Bay Area-bred Motherwell down the political and artistic path toward this series, as did the poetry of Federico Garcia Lorca, from which the title “At Five in the Afternoon” was drawn, and Pablo Picasso’s “Guernica,” which hovers over these imposing jet verticals and violently constrained black ovals.

Three thematically related fall exhibitions at the Cantor Art Center explore the various spheres of influence and process in order to illuminate the complexities of making and appreciating art. “Edward Hopper: New York Corner,” “Richard Diebenkorn: The Sketchbooks Revealed,” and “Artists at Work” are autonomous shows that...
