Is someone you love a big lover of art? Then this could be a great Valentine's gift for them. The Santa Monica Museum of Art recently invited twelve prominent artists to contribute an original artwork to be part of the "Artist Plate Project" in celebration of the museum's twentieth anniversary...

The black and white plates are available in a set of twelve, made of porcelain, and are each signed and numbered. They only made 125, so this would definitely be a collector's item. Artists include Mark Bradford, Kota Ezawa, Gajin Fujita, Charles Gaines, Joe Goode, Salomón Huerta, Kerry James Marshall, Kim McCarty, Raymond Pettibon, Allen Ruppersberg, Alison Saar, and Álvaro Siza.

oh, god. they could have at least used GOOD art work. and this is coming from an artist who has no conservative take on what 'art' or 'good' art is.
Liking the naughty "that was some real good eatn" plate. ;P
Too bad you have to buy it as a set.
