Allen Henson, the photographer who’s made a name for himself taking photos of topless women around New York City, was sued by the corporation that owns the Empire State Building earlier this year. This morning, he sent us and presumably several other journalists an update on his case: he’s countersuing for $5 million. Henson announced […]
The Upper East Side is home to some of New York’s most expensive real estate, and with the building of the Second Avenue Subway well underway, it’s no surprise there have been complaints. We’ve always thought it was unfounded whining, but the MTA subway expansion project has left the stretch from 66th to 74th Streets […]

This is her first show at the online project […]
“We thought it was up to ‘The Man,’ or whoever was in control of the art world,” artist Sarah Lannan tells to the Wall Street Journal, in an article misleadingly titled “An Art-World Love Story.” For years, Lannan and her husband Simon Evans have been making art together, art billed to Evans alone.
