Art Crush: Three to See

Chris Ofili: Afro Muses 1990-2005 at the Studio Museum in Harlem (Related: Nichelle enjoyed mingling with the smart and stylish crowd at the show's opening, and Gothamist.com's recent interview with Thelma Golden made me even more awed by her visionary curatorial and cultural sensibilities).

Portraits of an Age: Photography in Germany and Austria, 1900-1938 at the Neue Galerie; Just a few blocks away, and home to my hangout, Cafe Sabarsky. I've been seeing signs on lampposts around town for this show, featuring a hauntingly beautiful photograph of a woman in a kimono-type ensemble that often lingers in my mind.

Basquiat at the Brooklyn Museum: Quite possibly worth a trek out there.
