"Apprehension" by Chao-chen Yang (1951), from Asian/American/Modern Art: Shifting Currents, 1900-1970, coming to the de Young.
De Young Museum Maya Lin: Systematic Landscapes, Oct. 25-Jan. 28. Maya Lin was nearly stoned in the street for her then-controversial design of the Vietnam War Memorial in DC. If you've been wondering what she's been up to since, check out this compact exhibition of recent sculptures, drawings and installations; Asian/American/Modern Art: Shifting Currents, 1900-1970, Oct. 25-Jan. 18, the first comprehensive survey of Asian American Modernism, showcases 100 works by over 70 artists of Japanese, Chinese, Filipino and Korean descent.
Then, for the hidden inner fashionista, Yves Saint Laurent, a four-year retrospective devoted to the late, highly neurotic, effusively talented, chain-smoking master of understated elegance who brought us the safari jacket, "le smoking," the woman's tuxedo, the pants suit (say thank you, Hillary) and an obsession with black. So that's why there's no color in my closet! Nov. 1-March 1. www.deyoungmuseum.org
