MoMA PS1: Warm Up 2013 is the Summer’s Best Dance Party!
Every Saturday afternoon, all summer long, the normally tranquil courtyard at MoMA PS1 explodes with music, joy, sweat, dancing, awesome design, cool water, beer, happy children, tasty food, good-looking grownups, art, and lots of laughter. That's right, it's Warm Up time again in Long Island City!
Imran Qureshi Splatters The Met’s Roof Garden For This Summer’s Exhibition
After several summers of elaborate crowd pleasers on the Met's Roof Garden–think Tomas Saraceno's mirrored honeycomb Cloud City last year, and Doug and Mike Starn's soaring bamboo jungle Big Bambu in 2010, both of which almost felt like playground equipment, in a good way–the museum gets far more subdued (and totally 2D) in 2013 with […]
Whitney Museum Summer Exhibitions: Edward Hopper and David Hockney
Each time I visit the Whitney in its soon-to-be departed Upper East Side home, I’m struck by how appealingly low-key this place is, especially as compared to those nearby cultural behemoths, MoMA and the Met. Not that the Whitney is a sleepy institution by any means and the opening of its downtown location will surely […]
Lincoln Center’s Midsummer Night Swing 2013 Kicks Off Next Week!
Lincoln Center's great participatory performance series Midsummer Night Swing starts up again on June 25, and man are we ready to MOVE! Held in Damrosch Park on 15 nights over the course of three consecutive weeks, Midsummer Night Swing is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year (here are some pictures from last year).
Things To Do at South Street Seaport: Pop-up Shops, Smorgasbar, and More!
The South Street Seaport area was just beginning to shed its tacky-tourist image at this time last year, with a revitalized Museum, restaurants at which you'd actually want to eat, the great Imagination Playground, and the lovely East River Esplanade. And then autumn came, and the nightmare of Sandy, and ever since then the Seaport's main pedestrian plazas have […]
Pace Chelsea Art Galleries Featuring Tim Hawkinson, Yoshimoto Nara, and Richard Misrach
One of the biggest players in the Chelsea gallery scene is Pace, whose trio of large spaces on 25th Street are always a solid choice when you’re making your art-viewing rounds.
Asphalt Green Battery Park City Opening; Register for Summer Camp and Classes!
It's been a long time coming (I know, I'm sorry, I first promised you it would open in the winter of 2011!), but the sports and fitness complex Asphalt Green is really, truly about to open its state-of-the-art facility in Battery Park City. In fact, the lobby's already open, and you can right now register […]
Governors Island 2013 Season; Events, Music, Food and More!
The list of must-do NYC summertime rituals just keeps getting longer: free Shakespeare (in the Park and in the Parking Lot), free concerts everywhere, outdoor movie festivals galore, Coney Island for the new rides (and the Mermaid Parade, on June 22), Rockaway Beach bouncing back from Sandy, on and on.
Rain Room at MoMA; You Can Leave Your Umbrella at Home
Last fall, when design firm rAndom International first presented their remarkable Rain Room at London's Barbican Centre, rave reviews and social-media-fueled word of mouth quickly made five- hour lines at the site routine. Now, thanks to the terrific MoMA PS1 exhibition Expo 1, Rain Room has arrived here in Midtown, Manhatthan – not a bad […]
Orly Genger’s Red, Yellow, and Blue Installation at Madison Square Park
Maybe it was the glorious spring weather that had me swooning, or the fact that the flowers and trees were all in full, spectular boom, but I must say that Orly Genger's massive new art installation in Madison Square Park, titled Red, Yellow, and Blue, could be the best yet to grace the lawns of […]
