Joan Mitchell, The Last Decade
Yes, that's me, trying to catch my breath after entering this exhibition of Joan Mitchell's large-scaled paintings! There were thirteen of the most powerful and gorgeous works of art imaginable. Luckily, I went to the Gagosian Gallery in Beverly Hills just before the show closed. It was the first time I had ever seen any of these stunning paintings. They will go to their new owners and may never be in the public view again. I only hope that museums may have purchased some of the paintings, so we can always have access to them.
