Mexican Photographs at the Getty

I found this online exhibit Mexico: From Empire to Revolution on the Getty Museum website, by reading  their newsfeed on Facebook. It is actually "extends the two-part exhibition held at the Institute between October 2000 and May 2001" so this website has been around for a while.

What with all the whining about Facebook, some of it justified, you seldom hear that it is an excellent resource for art lovers. Many galleries and museums have a presence on Facebook, and it is [whatever].

The site itself has a few problems but I found that the best way to see the photos was to use the html version and then click through the photographers. The enlargements here are quite good.

Color Chart at the Tate

Compare this site to the exhibition site for the same show at MOMA - Nov. 19/2009. One instance is Marcel Duchamp - MOMA shows a good magnification of the image. Tate has an audio/video description, but shows a different artwork.

Testing expression

Note here the history of Expression - check Fractal Design and then who - see box.

I am quite proud of these very simple images because I used  Microsoft Expression Design to create the swirls and then Microsoft Expression Web to show me how to make the tables correctly so I could insert the swirls into this blog entry and show that one image had a transparent background and one didn't. This is likely quite elementary for someone who learned CSS and all the new-fangled coding, but I learned html using a text editor and once upon a time knew the codes. Now it's almost impossible to find a simple way to code html.

Actually, check the Wikipedia links for this.
