CoHo hasn't just survived, it has thrived and is ascending, and that is largely thanks to the foundation that Cuomo... laid with the young artists who have come up after him.

The dream is the confusion machine I didn't have to build, a space where perception slips beyond authorship. Within Communal Dreams, influence operates as a subtle signal rather than a directive force.

The Walking Man has been spotted around various New York City subway stations, awarding fans with prizes and terrifying unsuspecting straphangers with an unsettling smile.

For the Shakers, Dancing is both a means of revelation and a way to do the work of God in the world, Kimerer LaMothe, a dancer and philosopher of religion, said in an interview. To dance is to build heaven on earth.

The title was spontaneous, impulsive. It was inspired by Kenneth Anger. He has two films with 'Rising' in the title - 'Lucifer Rising' and 'Scorpio Rising' - and I wanted to make something in this supernatural, surreal, occultist, exaggerated, fantasy world, like his films.

I looked up and saw him looking right at me, and I'm just glad I moved right, because moving left would have basically sent me into the centre [of the shot].

Under her leadership, Jackson said, 'The most important thing is to make sure that Film Forum continues its mission.' This reflects her commitment to the organization and its role in independent cinema.

Under the ABS challenge system, a team begins each game with two challenges. If a player gets an umpire's call overturned, their team retains the challenge. In effect, this means a team has unlimited challenges until they get two wrong.

The Man is so absorbed in his trout-fishing hobby that he won't stop to watch a sunset with The Woman, even though he has romantically brought her to his remote cabin for the first time.

All but one of the song titles on Body Sound, the debut album from experimental string trio Whitney Johnson, Lia Kohl, and Macie Stewart, line up nicely-a few words, usually two, usually nouns, separated by a vertical line. The straight line in the middle means different things in different disciplines. In computing, it's called a 'pipe' and serves as a conduit. In poetry, it denotes a pause or break. In music, it marks the beginning and end of measures.

Both are one-night-in-hell slashers about two estranged sisters forced to fight their way out of a lair of rich people who've joined a devil cult and are hellbent on sacrificing them to their dark lord. They even debut one week after another, the latter on March 20, the former on March 27.

"We are uniquely global and local, historic and contemporary, collection driven and exhibition driven," Westermann said. "I really needed someone who understands that complexity."

Kyoung Chun's creative practice moves between painting and site-specific installation. Interactive works extend the language of painting beyond the canvas, inviting viewers into environments that challenge perception and encourage connection.

People all saw that there is something new is being attempted here that you've just got to see. I think that is its own reward. In an era where New York's storied Met Opera has faced layoffs, pay cuts, postponed productions, and a controversial financial agreement with Saudi Arabia, forward-thinking artistic direction becomes essential for survival.

Cabaret legend Justin Vivian Bond is this year's Joe's Pub Vanguard artist, and as part of their curated residency, "drag terrorist" CHRISTEENE played four sold out shows at the venue.

I've been coming to the Art Series since 2022. The after-party is one of the most fun to go to, and tickets are a lower price than usual for ballets. A friend introduced me to it, and that's what I'm doing now-bringing a friend who's never seen the ballet before.

Spalding Gray used to perform a show called Interviewing the Audience. The celebrated monologist would invite a stranger he had met in the lobby to join him on stage. Through a sequence of innocuous questions, he would get them to open up about their lives. At one performance, a guest broke the audience's hearts by talking about her daughter's murder. At benefit nights, people living with HIV shared their tales. Other times, the anecdotes would be eccentric or amusing.
