After visiting beta pictoris gallery I was encouraged to stop by the BMA. I was told that Mark Flood's painting was on view in the Modern/Contemporary galleries.

R: Bob Thompson "Ornette", 1960-61
Suzan Frecon "double red", 1997
This is the second work by Frecon I have come across in a museum. The first at The Menil in Houston where they had a very large monochromatic reddish painting installed. I was blown away. And now, a wonderful luscious small work on paper. It was nice to see the BMA feature works on paper. I believe museums are really missing out on showing intimate wonderful personal works.
L: Robert Arneson "Clay I Am, It is True", 1982-83.
I failed to get the information on the works to the right of Arneson's piece.
L: Raymond Pettibon "Untitled, Superman figure", n.d.
