James and I are headed to the west coast! I'm going to the Open Source Conference in Portland, OR at the end of July, and then we'll be in Los Angeles the first week of August.
I've never been to LA, if you can believe it. We aren't going to spend a huge amount of time going to see art, but I know we'll hit Terence Koh's show at Peres Projects and the Made in Mexico show at the Hammer.
Cool hotel, restaurant, architectural, whatever recommendations are welcome.
MAISON 140 in beverly hills is very cute and fun - check their website - they have specials sometimes - Also check out Karen LoveGrove Gallery in the 6150 Wilshire BLVD gallery complex - Great paintings by (gay) artist Dietmar Lutz...

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll put her on the gallery list. I'll put the web site address here, since it's slightly misspelled:

Are you an artist? I looked at your web site and just saw 2 images.
yeah - painter - The website is a work in progress - the second image is a suite of drawings from last year - More to come I promise.... If you go to Lovegrove you have to say Hi to my friend Tim who's the director - and say that I sent you...
