Photo or it didn’t happen. Last week’s Instagram posts of the art world are reminders of where the hottest shows in New York are at and which are closing soon. Here are a few standout shots from last week that show how getting that perfect ‘gram can be just as satisfying as seeing a favorite work. Soak up the creative wonder and become inspired to take your Insta game to the next level!

 

1. Manus x MachinaThe Met‘s most Instagrammable show this summer, lends itself to trippy pics, like this one captured by @dokino. If you haven’t had a chance to catch the show yet, fear not, as its end date has been extended through September 5.

2. Where’s the art handler? @youngsunart provided a behind-the-scenes look at an art handler sporting a similarly printed shirt as this Raymond Pettibon painting, on view at David Zwirner Gallery.
