The DeYoung is mostly special exhibits, right? I've been to a couple that were pretty good but, in general, SF is pretty weak in terms of museums. (And I admit I just don't personally care for much of what's in SFMoma.) Though that's generally true of the West Coast with a few notable exceptions like the Getty.

No, though like most museums it has and actively promotes special exhibits.

The DeYoung permanent collections, IIRC, are mostly non-European regional collections, with some particular-media focussed collections

I suspect the major SF art museum you'd probably dislike the least is the Legion of Honor.

I guess the permanent collection at the DeYoung didn't make much of an impression the last time I was there for a special exhibit. Never been to the Legion of Honor.
