The Arts in NYC Fall 2012

With all the mid-terms, I sort of forgot to go out last weekend. But luckily, my Wednesday evening class was cancelled. So, I decided to look up somewhere to go. I found out that Guggenheim is having a Picasso Black and White exhibition. I asked my friend from high school if he wanted to go […]

Ahh yes, Comic Con. So this was my first year at NYCC, and I had absolutely no idea what I was doing or what was happening. It was awesome. Unfortunately I was only able to go one day — Friday, October 12th. By the time I decided I wanted to go, three day passes were […]

Fridays are usually extremely dull for me. For a person with a very inactive social life and a class that ends at 9:50 AM , Fridays are just another day of the week. But two weeks ago on October 12th, I saved myself from my own company by visiting the New York Philharmonic Orchestra for […]

Were you ever tempted to do something just because it was free? Even if it didn’t interest you that much, you still had the urge to splurge and venture into a new world at no cost? Being that I am Jewish and stereotypically, us Jews love freebies, this past Tuesday night I spent the night […]

On October 17th, I finally got to experience a concert that has been on my bucket list for two years already – I got to see Marilyn Manson live. On top of that, I saw Rob Zombie perform the same night. As soon as I heard about the “Twins of Evil” tour, I knew I […]

About two weeks ago, my friends and I were convinced to go see the Broadway show Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark, a play that was supposed to be a combination of acrobatic feats and magical musical performance that follows the story we all know of the one-and-only  Spiderman. I wish I had read the reviews […]

  This past Monday, I had to visit the Merchant’s House Museum on East 4th Street for my English class. The Merchant’s House Museum, built in 1832, is one of the oldest buildings still standing today in New York City. The house was occupied by a wealthy family named the Tredwells, who earned their riches by […]

This past Friday my friend convinced me to go with her to the MoMA to see the Goldfinger exhibit. At first I thought, “ugh MoMA on a Friday,” but I actually got excited cause I really like the 007 films; I think my friend’s excitement rubbed off on me too, she’s a huge film buff […]

I came across these photos the other day and found them really interesting. The artist superimposes scenes from World War II with the modern day locations at which they occured. http://news.yahoo.com/photos/ghosts-of-history-slideshow/ 0
