Field Trip: ICP Museum
At the International Center of Photography's new museum on the Bowery, where the first show is about privacy and public visibility, the curators really packed in the art. Plus: There's an outpost of Maman. / 1 comment
Field Trip: Noguchi Museum & Socrates Sculpture Park
There's never been a better time to visit the Noguchi Museum in Long Island City, thanks to an exhibit of works by Tom Sachs that relate to those of Isamu Noguchi and Japanese culture in general. Then stroll over to the Socrates Sculpture Park.
Field Trip: Fisher Landau Center for Art
The museum exists solely to show the art owned by Emily Fisher Landau, who collected works from 1960 on. There's never anyone there, so you get three floors of contemporary art to yourself.
Field Trip: The High Bridge
Like porch swings and celebrity nudes, pedestrian bridges are irresistible—especially ones that have been off limits for 40 years. / 4 comments
Field Trip: The Broad
With a dazzling building and an astounding collection, the Broad in L.A. is the best new art museum I've been to in a very long time. / 2 comments
Field Trip: Crown Heights
I kept imagining that locals, seeing us take photos of the townhouses, foliage, and signage, probably assumed we were gentrifiers plotting a takeover. But what's the alternative: never leave Tribeca? Plus, now I know where to get cow skin. / 2 comments
Field Trip: Spuyten Duyvil
Back to the Bronx for some good housepeeking, a walk through a forest, and lunch at an old-school Jewish deli. / 3 comments
Field Trip: New York Botanical Garden
There's a show about Frida Kahlo's art and garden that's best for Kahlophiles, but the rest of the garden made up for it. / 2 comments
Field Trip: Bed-Stuy
I didn't think it'd be dangerous, exactly, but I didn't think it'd be gorgeous. Small wonder the area—which is huge, by the way—is being gentrified so quickly. / 2 comments
Field Trip: The New Whitney Museum
What makes it more than a big, funky shed full of great art are the terraces, catwalks, promontories, and exterior staircases. Let's explore.... / 4 comments
Field Trip: Bushwick
Doing minimal research had worked out so well for our Greenpoint walkabout that Andrea and I figured we'd be OK in Bushwick—and we were wrong. But hey, pizza. / 8 comments
Field Trip: The Rockaways
The revitalization of the Rockaways has received a lot of press, but the off-season isn't exactly a beachy, funky, artsy paradise. Then again, when the ferry is only $7 round trip, who cares? / 5 comments
