The quality of the permanent art collection at the Getty Center is a point of some contention. There are those who find it overpriced, unfocused and pedestrian. And even, say some, boring.
But you can walk up any time and go in for free or pay five bucks for a car load of people and have an entirely splendid day. Any time you want to, just go on up. What’s to complain?
2011 UPDATE: it’s been many years now and no one is saying boring anymore. Also parking is up to fifteen bucks!
2019 UPDATE: Twenty Dollars to park. Not so free. I could probably get a lyft ride back and forth for less than that.
