  • Opera for all at NYC Opera

    James and I are attending Don Giovanni on Saturday as part of NYC Opera’s “Opera For All” promotion: $25 tickets! I recommend getting on their mailing list for future offers, as most of it is now sold out except for a concert of hightlights from the season on Thursday the 6th. If you want to avoid the crowds in Chelsea, maybe you should attend that instead. You can text “OPERA” to 43077 for insider news and offers.

    Sept. 6th: City Opera Concert Celebration 7:30 p.m; followed by an after party with the East Village Opera Company on the Promenade of the State Theater

    THE CONCERT: The City Opera Celebration Concert will showcase our orchestra in an 80-minute program of highlights from the season sung by City Opera artists.

    THE POST–CONCERT PARTY: As a way of kicking off the Festival and welcoming a new audience to our house, the entire audience will be invited onto the Promenade and Ring Balconies of the New York State Theater for light hors d’oeuvres and beverages following the Concert. The East Village Opera Company, a rock band that plays opera arrangements, will provide music for the party.

  • Non-NYC art recommendations

    For those not here in NYC to avail themselves of the 193 upcoming openings on ArtCal, here are some openings of friends or people I’ve written about coming up in other cities.

  • Noticed how quiet it’s been around here?

    new-winkleman.jpg

    The blog’s been quiet due to multiple art-related projects. Not only did ArtCal relaunch with a new look this week (and a new programming framework for the geeks in the house), Winkleman Gallery is now using ArtCat for its website. This is my favorite part of Ed’s post announcing it:

    I can attest to how much easier making changes to the website has become with this new tool. One of the complaints I often heard with the old website was that there were not enough images. Well that’s because adding images was a huge pain in the ass given the way that site was designed, but with ArtCat, adding images is a breeze, so you can expect to see plenty more moving forward. In fact, I’ve added some behind the scenes shots of Thomas Lendvai creating his truly astounding new installation (he’s been working very hard on it all summer), which opens, you guessed it, next Thursday.

      "The programme was designed to loot the defeated country’s intellectual assets, impeding its ability to compete while giving a boost to British business." Ah, the march of freedom.
