The big day is coming! Yes, that would be Valentine’s Day, the institutionally sanctioned celebration of horribly ill-conceived romantic gifts. It doesn't have to be that way for you, however, because ARTINFO has your back. In addition to providing our own V-Day gift guide, we've turned a discerning eye to the gift shops of the major museums, the Met, LACMA, MoMA, the Guggenheim, the Whitney, and the V&A, all of which are offering selections of Valentine's-appropriate gifts on their Web sites. While some of their suggestions are great, many will land you in the dog house indefinitely. Here, then, is our guide to navigating them, highlighting our favorite hits and misses of these museum-approved tokens of affection.
