Taboo or not taboo, that is the question. Thursday evening, check it out for yourself. This art exhibition takes the bohemian memes of the south with Argentine conceptual artist’s De La Plata’s very own brand of modern art. Which features live nude in-your-face male and female figures in what DLP calls his Statue Garden. BTW, it’s been dubbed an “interactive” exhibit. So go for the controversy and stay for the post-exhibit cocktails at the cozy LES locale, CV lounge.

 

 

Recently opened White Noise brings the Big Apple back to its gritty, DIY, punk rock roots with lots of Jack Daniels, vintage things, and enough leather to make Iggy Pop proud. Aptly located in the East Village, White Noise promises to be the new mecca for up and coming indie bands and second gen hipsters. There’s even a secret second floor space with its own so-called ‘Weirdo’ room. You’ll just have to see for yourself.

 

 

Need a break from the wallet-breaking nights Meatpacking? Doesn’t everyone? Try Soul Imperial on Friday with Sailor Jerry Rum girls at Legion. This Billyburg event may be a little trek, but it’s got no cover, and lots of great music. Think r&b, reggae and tons of Old Skook faves. The Jerry Rum girls aren’t a bad excuse either.

 

Want some beer, wine, and cocktails? And a little art on the side? Gallery House and Green Edge Collaborative NYC are presenting a new exhibit called Reclaiming Space this Saturday. It showcases a variety of NYC artists using a multitude of mediums to explore the NYC artscene.

 

 

Saturday at the Gates InList.com presents NYC Nightlife Saturdays with Dj Vikas. The Gates definitely lives up to its name. Tucked away from the main streets, by, well, gates, the place has the lavish feel of an old world European castle with the a jet-set clienteleand cool appeal that’s hard to dismiss.
