San Jose – Road Trip Exhibition

post card view of a drive thru tree.If you’ve convinced yourself you can’t afford to drive very far this summer, and you live in the San Francisco Bay area, you probably need to go to the San Jose Museum of Art to see an exhibition called Road Trip. It may inspire you to hit the asphalt after all, or at least use up an afternoon when you would have been driving somewhere.

Lucy Larson writes: “The artwork starts with historical images of the road — think Dorothea Lange and Walker Evans — and moves through road trip sub-themes such as “The Quest, “Wish You Were Here,” and “When Road Trips Go Bad.” For the education areas, visitors can create postcards and mail them directly from the gallery. We’re also hoping people will mail us postcards from their summer vacations to have available for visitors to flip through.”

Send your card to: Road Trip, San Jose Museum of Art, 110 South Market Street, San Jose, CA 95113

The Road Trip exhibition runs from September 19, 2008 – January 25, 2009 at the San Jose Museum of Art. Watch the exhibit’s giant artichoke promo.
