Summer Streets NYC starts on Saturday, this year with dumpster pools!
If we weren’t going swimming in the deep, crystalline waters of Lake Winnipesaukee this weekend (wooooo-hooooo!) we would definitely be dipping in the NYC dumpster pools set up near Grand Central Terminal this Saturday. That’s right: last summer’s exclusive, hipster, wet-n-wild action is this summer’s populist, family fun! Of course, these dumpster pools were […]
The Imagination Playground, near the South Street Seaport
Just opened downtown, right next door to the South Street Seaport, The Imagination Playground lives up to superstar designer David Rockwell's promise to create a space for New York City kids that would "break all the normal rules." We stopped by last Saturday, and never have we seen so many little kids so happily and […]
The New Museum NYC Presents Rivane Neuenschwander: A Day Like Any Other
We've discussed our frustration with the New Museum in Manhattan before: how we love the design of the building (and its signage), both inside and out; and its location at the eastern end of Prince Street, near so much great shopping and eating and gallery-going; and its Sky Room terrace, with those sweeping views of […]
Summer Place at Bonni Benrubi Gallery in New York
It's been like 400 million degrees in New York City all month, so a visit to Bonni Benrubi Gallery in NYC on 57th Street seemed like an even better idea than usual this past weekend. From now through summer's end in late September, the renowned gallery hosts a terrific group show of wonderfully evocative, […]
Henri Matisse: Radical Reinvention, 1913 – 1917, at the MoMA
What a wonderful treat, the just-opened Henri Matisse art show at the Museum of Modern Art. Sprawled out luxuriously in the larger of the MoMA's sixth-floor galleries, this full-scale exhibition includes some 120 paintings, drawings, sculptures and prints, the bulk of which have been culled from Matisse's most difficult creative period, a four-year stint from […]
Fun FREE Live Music in NYC Alert: Two Epic Shows This Weekend
Ok, yes, there is great free music in NYC all summer long, from Rockefeller Park to Governors Island, Central Park to Castle Clinton, the Williamsburg Waterfront to the South Street Seaport, Wingate Field to Pier 54, Coney Island to Prospect Park to Madison Square Park to the World Financial Center to the East River Ampitheater […]
MoMA PS1 Brings Us Warm Up, Solid Objectives Pole Dance & Greater New York
It's that time of year again, when hundreds (thousands?) of club kids and euro-tourists and hipsters and frat boys and young families and scenesters turn Long Island City's MoMA PS1 into an afternoon-into-nighttime sun-drenched dance party, every Saturday, from now until Labor Day weekend. It's called Warm Up, it takes place in the sprawling PS1 […]
Andy Warhol: The Last Decade at the Brooklyn Museum
The challenge is formidable: how do you stage an Andy Warhol art exhibition these days that will get people excited? After all, Warhol is not only the most overly-famous, most commonly reproduced artist of the late 20th century, but his work itself is all reproductions (of reproductions), so it's not as if seeing the original […]
Street Pianos NYC: Luke Jerram’s Play Me, I’m Yours
No surprise, after only one afternoon and six sightings, we already love Luke Jerram's Street Pianos NYC, a five-borough, interactive public art project, also known as Play Me I'm Yours. The concept here is simple and totally great: put 60 pianos, some elaborately painted, others not, in public places all around New York City, and […]
Summer Fun Alert! Coney Island Mermaid Parade: Saturday, June 19
Over the years the Coney Island Mermaid Parade has become one of our favorite New York City street parties. Launched in 1983 by the not-for-profit arts organization Coney Island USA–partly as an homage to the long-defunct Coney Island Mardi Gras, which was a HUGE deal in the first half of the 20th century; partly […]
