Mrs. C and I took some time off to visit the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. It's a don't miss. We were last there several years ago. Since then there has been a huge expansion, tripling the exhibition space
The featured show was about the later work of René Magritte. Some people consider his paintings simple and repetitive, if a bit strange. The audio guide explained how complex the paintings are, challenging the viewer to think about odd juxtapositions and the subtle layers of the seen and unseen.
It's obvious I like to take pictures of people in museums looking at the art, such as this old favorite. You have to wonder what what gets through.

That last shot is my favourite of those. I was familiar with the bowler hat Magritte, but couldn't recall which gallery held it.
