Tickling the Ivories
What's new in Wickiworld: Wickham Boyle rhapsodizes about "Play Me, I'm Yours," the public-art project that has installed pianos around the city: "They shake us from the often obsessive thoughts of shoulds, coulds, and didn’ts."
“This Mess” at Pelavin Gallery
I quite enjoyed Pelavin Gallery's new group show, "This Mess We're In: Reflections on the Metropolis"—especially the Molotov cocktail, and even the rat flower—so I emailed a few questions over to Todd Masters, Pelavin's new director and co-owner. / 4 comments

Art Students League to the Rescue!
I was in a crabby mood today—due in good part to the heat, no doubt—but it lifted when, while walking down Staple Street, I noticed an artist painting at an easel. And then another one. And another one! It was as if a flock of talented butterflies had come to visit us. / 1 comment
