NY nostalgic. ‘Thugs, Mugs, Drugs; City In Terror’.
Photographer Leonard Freed joined officers on the beat for his project, which went on display at the Museum of the City of New York on Tuesday.
The pictures first appeared in the Sunday Times in March 1973 under the controversial headline of: ‘Thugs, Mugs, Drugs; City In Terror’.
Maurizio Cattelan at Guggemheim Museum (NYC)
love it!! Don´t lose it!
Gorgeous retrospective of the Italian artis. Roberta Smith of the New York Times writes: “Mr. Cattelan’s entire artistic output, excepting two works whose owners declined to lend them, hangs in a gigantic distended mass from cables connected to an aluminum truss near the top of the museum’s rotunda.”
New “mut to see” NYplace: Restaurant Robert, it was envisioned by Schefer Design and is situated atop the Museum of Arts and Design in New York City.
Unique views: you can enjoy the expansive views of Columbus Circus, Central Park, Broadway and Central Park West.

Postmodernidad o Retrofuturismo??

The exhibition opens with a panel discussion with “What Modern Was” curators Hanks and Eidelberg, legendary collector Mark McDonald and modernist interior designer Ali Tayar. “Modern in the Past Tense” opens 26 October 2011 and runs through 12 January 2012 at NYSID.
Remembering “Design 1935-1965: What Modern Was”, it was opened in 1991, the accompanying 424-page catalog startled the industry with its declaration that the Modern period was over, and should, from that point, be spoken about in the past tense.
Prada & Schiaparelli will have a “conversation” at MET
El MET volverá a dedicar sus salas al diseño de moda la próxima primavera. Entonces, las creadoras italianas Miuccia Prada y Elsa Schiaparelli serán las protagonistas de una muestra que reunirá el talento de distintas épocas en un único espacio.
La exposición permanecerá abierta al público desde el 10 de mayo al 19 de agosto de 2012. La muestra contará con cerca de 80 diseños de ambas profesionales, así como varios vídeos en los que simularán conversaciones entre las dos sobre temas como el arte, la política, las mujeres o la creatividad, inspiradas en las ‘entrevistas imposibles’ que publicó la revista Vanity Fair en los años treinta.
