June 12, 2024 - Wednesday - Today we were back in Glendale, CA to visit our favorite museum in a cemetery, the Forest Lawn Museum. Their latest exhibit is called "Filipino California: Art and the Filipino Diaspora." The exhibition showcases the work of seven contemporary artists that directly and indirectly address issues related to Filipino culture and the Filipino-American experience.
A large section of the exhibit highlighted the work of Anthony Francisco, who has worked for Marvel Studios and created the character of Baby Groot.
It is a interesting exhibit with a different and unique style.
After the museum we headed over to La Bella Pinseria Romana for lunch.
We ordered two pizzas and the first was "Prosciutto Di Parma," which is mozzarella, prosciutto, arugula, Burrata, and EVOO.
Each oblong pie was cut into eight pieces and they're easy to eat. The second pizza was "Burrata," which is Burrata cheese, San Marzano tomato sauce , Grana Padano, Calabrian chilis, arugula, and oregano. Those Calabrian chilis were hot and spicy, both pizzas were delicious.
