Two friends and I went to the Getty this a.m. to see the Bernini sculpture exhibit. WOW!!! I highly recommend it to anyone interested in sculpture. Bernini was in at the onset of the Baroque period, and became renowned as a portraitist. His detailed work gives life to his pieces, and the folds, textures, etc., especially of "fabrics," are amazing. Be sure to take a good look at the Battenberg-type lace on one of the pieces. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself and a friend to this unique exhibit. There is a $10 charge for parking, but admission to the museum is free. Take more than one friend and share the parking cost. There are lots of food choices at the Cafe, which is on the lower level below The Restaurant.
The Getty is always free. You have to pay for parking, though
