Michelangelo Buonarroti\u2019s work will be exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Titled Michelangelo: Divine Draftsman and Designer<\/em>, this is a must-see for any Renaissance and Old Masters lovers who cannot make the trip to Europe. This exhibition will include 150 drawings, 3 marble sculptures, a wooden architectural model, and his earliest painting that has survived. This is a special exhibition\u00a0since his drawings are hardly ever on display for the public, so if you are in the city this is your chance.<\/p>\n

Club 57: Film, Performance, and Art in the East Village<\/em>, 1978-1983 at the Museum of Modern Art. Club 57 is located in the basement of a Polish Church at 57 St. Marks Place, and began as a no-budget venue for music and film exhibitions, and is known for its desire to experiment with new approaches of art, performance, fashion, music, and exhibition. On display from October 31 until April 1, 2018, this exhibition will be the first exhibition to show the changes in this space, where most of the works have not been on public display since the 1980s. With works commemorating and praising Club 57 for its achievements, there will be paintings, drawings, fashion design, theater, video, and film performances, as well as curating, printmaking, and collages to show all of the artistic aspects that have been represented in a period of scene-changing at this location.<\/p>\n

White Man On a Pedestal: Kenya (Robinson) and Doreen Garner<\/em> is an upcoming exhibition taking place at Pioneer Works. Opening November 10\u00a0 and on view until December 17, 2017, the exhibition uses white-male-heteronormativity as a model to question the history of Western art. Both being African-American women, Robinson and Garner use their experiences to make a narrative about white male supremacy. The artists play with the size, texture, and scale of white monumentality itself, referencing historical moments, personal experiences, and fictional moments to assist in creating a narrative.<\/p>\n
