Palm Springs Art Museum KILLER HEELS Exhibition

Palm Springs Art Museum has opened the highly anticipated exhibition Killer Heels: The Art of the High-Heeled Shoe on September 5, which will be on view through December 13, 2015. The exhibition merges fashion, film, and material culture, while exploring the fashion world’s most coveted object, its rich cultural history, and its complex relationships to fantasy, functionality, identity and power.

Organized thematically, Killer Heels features more than 110 contemporary high heels and 50 historical designs drawn from designer archives, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s renowned costume collections. Beyond the archetypal forms – stiletto, wedge, and platform – the emphasis is on designs that play with the sculptural, architectural, and artistic possibilities of the high heel using innovative or unexpected materials or techniques; and that push the limits of functionality, wearability, and even conventional beauty, through surprising structure, shape, or height. Palm Springs Art Museum is located at 101 Museum Drive, Palm Springs. 760-322-4800.

Lyons English Grill bought by Birba group … now called Mr. Lyons Steak House

I

t’s the beginning of a new era. Come taste the New Classic at Mr. Lyons, where we give steak a conscientious modern update with a menu that puts local small farms first.

You may know our space, family-owned and operated for over 70 years by David Lyons as Lyons English Grill. Reimagined in 2015 by Tara Lazar, Mr. Lyons is the newest offering from the Foundation 10 family, taking the same attention to detail we’ve brought to Cheeky’s, Birba and Alcazar to a new vista on the South end of town.

Evoking the old Hollywood glamour that Palm Springs is famous for, our dining salon is black and white marble, wood, brass, and luxurious velvet booths; a fine dining experience steeped in classic elegance. The menu is steak-centered with an endless choice of sides, and the tableside service--a hallmark of classic steak house dining-offers the kind of personalized experience you won’t soon forget. If you’re looking for an informal night out, sample the laid-back menu in our lounge, a more casual setting for savoring a true classic cocktail or something seasonal and new. We also have two private dining rooms for special events and will soon be offering patio seating.

East Coast Deli with West Coast Style Sherman’s Deli and Bakery is a true culinary landmark in Palm Springs and Palm Desert. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, this Kosher-style family restaurant has been the “meeting place” for locals, vacationers and celebrities for over a half a century.

Sherman Harris came to the desert in 1953 to visit a friend at Lawry’s Steak Ranch. He fell in love with the area, stayed on to manage the ranch and realized his true calling when he opened Sherman’s Deli and Bakery.

A true family restaurant, it is now run by his son Sam and daughter Janet.

Sherman may not be with us anymore, but his presence is felt every day in every way. Sam and Janet remember bussing tables and waiting on tables and listening to their father’s frequent reminders to “treat every one who came through the doors as though they were a guest in your home”. He loved his customers and his community and they loved him back. Sherman’s loyalty and dedication to customer service is as evident today as it was then, carried out by Sam and Janet in the same caring manner as always.

STEPHEN BAUMBACH LANDSCAPE AND PORTRAITURE PHOTOGRAPHER

For over 40 years, Stephen Baumbach has pursued the thing that has captivated him since High School…the art of photography. He has taught in classrooms, workshops and been exhibited in numerous shows nationwide. His images range in scope from rodeos to national and international architectural icons. Now settled in Palm Springs, CA since October 2014, his eye is on the surrounding desert…the off-the-grid and outlier areas…that yield an extraordinary beauty he captures with his artists’ eye and his trusty Canon. All his photographs are produced digitally and he personally finishes each print himself.

His love of the desert has him exploring the surrounding areas including the Anza Borrego, Algodones Dunes and Slab City

ART GALLERIES among others. He plans his sojourns through the use of satellite and weather maps, looking for the areas that will yield the treasures and hues he is aiming for…the browns, reds, blues, pinks and yellows, which reveal themselves at different times of day or night. He refers to some of the images he shoots as the “Eighth Wonders of the World” and there are many who would agree with him. Stephen’s work is broken up into series, which currently include the Anza Borrego desert and Kemuri, which is a study in smoke. His works may be views at www.stephenbaumbach photography.com.
