Be a Guest Curator at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco
In looking for some links to works by Elmer Bischoff, I stumbled over this gold nugget of a site! You can go to the art works (75,000?) conserved in these two museums which are "The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco." The de Young and the California Palace of the Legion of Honor have combined a lot of their energies for fund-raising, advertising, and other mundane functions that museums employ in order to stay afloat. Go over there and look through these collections! And you can make up a small virtual exhibit. Name it, and get it onto the Index, and then let us know where to find it. This techie stuff is totally amazing!
