Hundreds of people showed up to Bryant Park dressed in white this week for Diner en Blanc or, excuse me — “Le Dîner en Blanc” which “recalls the elegance and glamour of court society” as “diners engage one another knowing they are taking part in a truly magical event.” Although this public, white-clad affair is a far […]
Last month, the decade-old Joe Strummer tribute that was painted on the side of an East Village bar was completely buffed by workers doing renovations according to EV Grieve.

Barry McGee’s current exhibition at Cheim & Read is his first in New York in over eight years. McGee’s colorful graphic compositions command attention and, at times, may even require their own room to be properly presented.

These photos were shot at the Russian Embassy in Washington, D.C. on August 16th during the second annual Pussy Riot protest and solidarity concert. To show their support against the unjust imprisonmentof Pussy Riot, the protestors wore brightly colored “balaclavas,” the emblem of Pussy Riot’s [attempted] anonymity and, ultimately, a signature image of protest.
