They let you photograph in the galleries?  I was hired to photograph (the event) at a Rodin exhibit a few years ago.  I was yelled at by security for 'apparently' getting the art in the photographs...and I explained to them that it was inevitible that the art would make it in the pictures (his stuff is quite big!), and they insisted I had to take the pictures without getting any of the art in the pictures.  I then assured them none of the art would get in the pictures any more (with my tongue in my cheek, mind you ;-), they were happy.

P.S.  And they certainly don't let me use a flash!
