Relive the British Invasion at Lincoln’s Center’s “Ladies and Gentlemen… The Beatles!”
As I'm sure you've heard (was it the shrieking teenagers echoing across the decades?), The Beatles first came to America 50 years ago in February, landing at JFK to begin their historic TV-radio-concert-tour across the country, spearheading the so-called British Invasion which would redefine music and culture forever.
NYC’s Best Destination Parks
If you're fortunate enough to live right near one of the more than 1,700 public parks and playgrounds that make New York City among the greenest urban areas on the planet well…. then, that's where we'll probably find you this weekend. Yay spring!. But even though New Yorkers all have their favorite neighborhood spots […]
Easter Egg Hunts, Parades, and Other Fun Activities in NYC
Photo by Robert S. Donovan Next weekend is Easter already! A holiday which is a great excuse to celebrate spring, wear lots of florals, get together with family, microwave some peeps, and eat a ton of chocolate. For kids, though, Easter is all about the egg hunt (although the Faberge Big Egg Hunt is fun for adults too). […]
Pop Art & Post-War Artwork from Onnasch Collection at Hauser & Wirth
New York City's grand museums are about to launch their big spring/summer exhibitions. We're especially looking forward to Ai Wei Wei in Brooklyn, and Jeff Koons Whitney takeover, which will be that institution's grand finale at their Upper East Side location. Until then, it seems like the perfect time to check out some gallery shows around town.
The Faberge Big Egg Hunt is ON!
Is NYC cracking up? Well, while there may be several examples of that, right now, and through until April 18, there are more than 250 giant eggs "hidden" all over New York City. Each one of these fabulous two-and-a-half-foot sculptures has been dyed… er, designed, by a different artist. They are the focus of the […]
Things to Do in April in NYC
Because it's felt like full-on winter here for so long, April seems to have snuck up on us a bit this year. So before we fall too far behind, here's a quick look at just a few upcoming events slated for next month that recently caught our eye. And don't forget about those flower shows!
New York Flower Shows for 2014: Spring is in the Air!
Spring is here. Really? It's kind of hard to tell, isn't it? After #neverendingwinter2014, I'll believe it when I see it…BUT there are increasingly positive signs that soon everyone will be complaining about how hot and muggy is it. In the meantime, however, New York is host to a wonderful variety of flower shows that […]
BRIC Arts Media House in Brooklyn: Art, Music, Food and Fun!
Brooklyn's art scene has never been hotter. My recent visits to the Jewish Museum and the Brooklyn Museum certainly demonstrated that. Now it's time to put Brooklyn's BRIC Arts Media House on your radar. Opened last October in Fort Greene, a block or so away from the various Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) venues, the […]
The Whitney Biennial 2014 – A Little Rough with a Few Gems
The Whitney Biennial 2014, for which the museum's curators, or guest curators, attempt in one fell swoop to deliver a definitive snapshot of what is happening NOW in contemporary art in NYC and beyond, is always one of the most talked-about and hashed-over exhibitions of the year, for fairly obvious reasons.
BHQFU’s The Last Brucennial Displays 660 Pieces of Art All Created by Women
I’ll be heading over to the Whitney soon to scope out the Biennial. The wonderful and exhausting Armory Arts Week totally satisfied my contemporary art craving for a few days, but until then may I recommend the messy, epic, raunchy, amazing BRUCEennial to you!
