David Shrigley’s Signs at Anton Kern Gallery in Chelsea NYC
Three months ago the Chelsea gallery district was slammed by Sandy, with catastrophic flooding causing millions of dollars in damage, wrecking the area's infrastructure, and effectively shutting down the entire half-mile length of the cultural institution which, with its more than 400 separate art galleries, houses one of the largest and most important concentrations of […]
Get in on Levy’s Unique New York Freeze Tag Fun on Wall St NYC
If you grew up in the suburbs, you know how awesome it was to play all sorts of crazy games with a big pack of neighborhood kids, often in someone's backyard or even better, right out there on the street. Spud. Kickball. Stickball. Ding Dong Ditch (aka Ring and Run). Flashlight tag. Freeze tag. Blob […]
Sinister Pop at the Whitney; Exploring the Dark Side of Pop Art
You can't help but feel a little wary of the Whitney's big holiday-season show, Sinister Pop. Not because it sounds too spooky or anything, but the exhibition definitely has the whiff of a shameless attendance-grab. After all, pop art is pretty much a sure thing at museums these days (witness the mobs at the Met […]
Spacewar! Blasts Off at the Museum of the Moving Image
We recently spent a chunk of our afternoon getting slaughtered by skittery mutants. We slammed into green spiky things as we tried to jump from one world to the next. We couldn't defend our cities from all of those freakin' missiles. Busy dodging asteroids, we got blown to bits by the galaxy's tiniest flying saucer. […]
Christian Marclay’s The Clock, 24-hour Movie at the MoMA
Christian Marclay's 24-hour film The Clock is one the best, most amazing art pieces we've ever seen. Though admittedly, we've only seen about eight and half hours of it so far- but still! Marclay's The Clock is a totally brilliant montage of brief moments, usually measured in seconds, from literally thousands of movies from the […]
Henri Matisse at the Met: The Mindset behind the Masterpiece
The Metropolitan Museum of Art throws a sure-fire crowd pleaser into its winter mix with the impeccably curated Matisse: In Search of True Painting, an eye-opening assemblage of nearly 50 of the modernist master, Henri Matisse's works, culled from the Met's own extensive collection as well as an array of international sources. Matisse is, of […]
Faking It: Manipulated Photography Before Photoshop, at the Met
As soon as photography was invented, it seems that photographers began manipulating their images. 'Faking It', one of the newest shows from the Metropolitan Museum of Art's, isn't about exposing charlatans, nor does it get into whether or not famous shots were staged. Instead it offers a lively and thoughtful appreciation of ways various artists […]
Make Music NY’s Winter Solstice Parades this Friday!
Every summer for seven years now, Make Music New York has staged the "largest music event ever to grace Gotham", a one-day sonic extravaganza with more than a thousand free outdoor concerts in public spaces all over the five boroughs.

SoHo, NoHo and DUMBO NYC Holiday Shopping Guide
We all have our go-to gift buying spots, those stores where we can pretty much always find something for even the trickiest people on our list. You enter with no idea what to get; you leave with something you know it will be liked and appreciated. There are dozens of possible candidates for NYC’s Best […]
Ann Hamilton Installation at the Park Avenue Armory
Who knew getting giddy on the swings at Ann Hamilton’s enormous installation at the Park Avenue Armory could possibly the most fun you’ll ever have ‘viewing’ art. Second only to Carsten Holler’s crazy three-story indoor slide at the New Museum, Hamilton’s hugely appealing piece called ‘The Event of a Thread’ will be in the Armory’s […]
