And to make the most of your time here, experience this city the way New Yorkers do, by visiting neighborhoods in every borough. Spend an afternoon exploring the incomparable Brooklyn Museum or New York Botanical Garden. Visit Chinatown in Flushing, Queens for incredible cuisine and culture. Ride the Staten Island Ferry—and then stay and have lunch at one of the best pizza restaurants in the city. Visit the Bronx Zoo and make this a trip the family will never forget. Every borough and every neighborhood has something to offer. Take a walk off the beaten path and explore some of the hidden gems and local spots that make New York City the greatest place on earth.

Installation View: Visionaries: Creating a Modern Guggenheim David Heald © Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, 2017

ONGOING

VISIONARIES: CREATING A MODERN GUGGENHEIM at the SOLOMON R. GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM provides a rare chance to explore in-depth some of the key artists of this essential New York institution. Framed by the interests of six leading patrons, Visionaries brings together canvases from masters like Max Ernst, René Magritte, and Yves Tanguy, and sculptures by Joseph Cornell and Alberto Giacometti. In addition, Jackson Pollock’s Alchemy (1947) is being shown in the U.S. for the first time in nearly 50 years. More than a dozen works on paper by Picasso and Van Gogh, rarely on view to the public, can be seen in the Thannhauser Gallery, and paintings by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Paul Gauguin, and Édouard Manet are displayed on the museum’s legendary ramps. 1071 Fifth Ave. (89th St.), 212-423-3500, guggenheim.org

ONGOING DRONES: IS THE SKY THE LIMIT? is the first major museum exhibition on pilotless aircraft to open in the U.S. The large-scale exhibition is installed in a huge, custom-designed pavilion on the legendary aircraft carrier now known as the INTREPID SEA, AIR & SPACE MUSEUM. The show reveals the history of drone technology, from its WWI origins to its current applications in solving complex humanitarian challenges. A mix of small and largescale drones are included, including Volantis, the world’s first flying dress, designed and worn by Lady Gaga.

FINAL WEEKS! GEORGIA O’KEEFFE: LIVING MODERN provides a new look at an iconic American artist at the very institution that hosted her first solo museum exhibition in 1927—the BROOKLYN MUSEUM. Presenting O’Keeffe’s remarkable wardrobe in dialogue with iconic paintings and photographs, this singular exhibition focuses in on the modernist persona O’Keeffe crafted for herself through her dress, her art, and her lifestyle. With photographs by luminaries like Alfred Stieglitz, Ansel Adams, and Annie Leibovitz, the show reflects O’Keeffe’s radical rethinking of female identity, and the artist’s commitment to elements of modernism— minimalism, seriality, simplification—not only in her art, but also in her distinctive style of dress. Closes July 23rd. 200 Eastern Pkwy. (Washington Ave.), 718-638-5000, brooklynmuseum.org

Cover Story Museum Mile and More: Culture in NYC

History lives at the city’s first museum, the New-York Historical Society.

When it comes to culture, New York is hard to beat. From art to history to literature, the city’s institutions are packed with exhibits that gather together the treasures of the world. On Tuesday, June 13th, catch the city’s biggest block party, as the Museum Mile Festival brings together seven top institutions on an Upper East Side stretch of Fifth Avenue for an evening of free museum admissions, family entertainment, and art in the street. The night runs from 6 to 9pm. In addition to the festival, late spring is a great time to catch culture in New York, like these incredible exhibitions going on right now. Housed in an iconic Frank Lloyd Wright spiraling building on Museum Mile, The Guggenheim Museum contains one of the world’s finest collections of modern and contemporary art, including works by Picasso, Matisse, and Modigliani. Currently on view is Visionaries: Creating a Modern Guggenheim, a rare look at some of the institution’s key artists (see p. 20), and The Hugo Boss Prize 2016: Anicka Yi, Life Is Cheap, a show where art uses scientific concepts to raise questions about about society and psychology. For a deep look at New York City’s past, present, and future, head to the Museum of the City of New York, also on Museum Mile. The new permanent 26 www.cityguideny.com

exhibit, New York at Its Core, looks at the city’s recurring themes of money, density, diversity, and creativity. Across Central Park is the New-York Historical Society, with four centuries of history and art. The museum’s fourth floor has just been reopened as the Center for Women’s History and now includes the Gallery of Tiffany Lamps, showing off stained glass mastery integrated into a space that makes a stunning juxtaposition of glassworks old and new. Also on view is Saving Washington, which takes on early American history from a female perspective. The Museum of Modern Art is the permanent home of some of the greatest art in the world, from Van Gogh’s Starry Night to Monet’s Water Lilies. See work from a dozen artists made in the last decade at the temporary exhibit Unfinished Conversations: New Work from the Collection. The Morgan Library and Museum is one of the city’s treasures.

iteration of the institution’s Treasures from the Vault features the original draft of President Ulysses S. Grant’s first inaugural address, the only complete manuscript of Jane Austen’s Lady Susan, and medieval treasures like the Zir Ganela Gospels, a masterpiece of Ethiopian art. Brooklyn has its own world-class institution, the Brooklyn Museum, with an impressive range of installations, running from Assyrian reliefs to ancient Egyptian art to a collection of historic houses and interiors. Don’t miss current exhibition Georgia O’Keeffe: Living Modern (see p. 22).

MUSEUM OF JEWISH HERITAGE— A LIVING MEMORIAL TO THE HOLOCAUST

Be moved by the Museum of Jewish Heritage.

Lower Manhattan’s Museum of Jewish Heritage celebrates the lives and traditions of both those who survived and those who perished in the Shoah. The museum’s three-story Core Exhibition doesn’t shy away from the atrocities that took place, but it also serves as a testament to the strength and perseverance of Jewish culture. Using first-person histories and personal objects, the exhibition explains Jewish life before WWII, telling the story of confronting hatred and violence, and the struggle to endure the unimaginable. Rich with artifacts and film clips, MJH is an important institution worth visiting. Don’t miss artist Andy Goldsworthy’s beautiful living memorial, Garden of Stones. 36 Battery Pl.

ONE WORLD OBSERVATORY

See for miles and miles from the incomparable heights of One World Observatory. There’s only one tallest. Only one strongest. And only one destination selected as the Best New Attraction in the World. These superlatives belong to One World Trade Center, and its pinnacle, the One World Observatory, rising over 100 stories in the sky. With an attraction this popular, OWO’s alltimed-entry system is a major advantage. Computerized ticketing ensures wait times are always kept manageable. You can buy your ticket on the spot, or in advance online. You’ll see some fast facts as you make your way to the elevators, confirming the superlatives: at 1,776 feet, One World Trade is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere; with over 45 tons of steel and a unique concrete core, it’s the strongest building in the world. After a minute’s ride and a short video, you’ll hit the Discovery Level (the main observatory), with 360° sights of the city and beyond. It’s all here, from the rivers to the harbor, from the Statue of Liberty to the Empire State Building. Jersey and Queens recede in distant horizons. Helicopters zip by like hummingbirds, well below the floor-to-ceiling windows. The skyscrapers of Lower Manhattan—some of which once claimed title to the tallest building in the world—cluster below your feet like toys. Observatory hours daily are 9am-8pm, with the last ticket sale at 7:15pm. Admission is $34 for adults, $32 for seniors above age 65, and $28 for children between ages 6 and 12. Kids 5 and under get in free. Admission for 9/11 family members, rescue, and recovery workers is free, and active and retired members of the US military get special discounts. 285 Fulton St. (entrance on the corner Vesey and West Sts.), 844-696-1776, OneWorldObservatory.com

Tony Nominations: Picks & Pronouncements

Joan Marcus

BY GRIFFIN MILLER

Thrown for a loop: Andy Karl (right, with John Sanders) is up for a Tony for his work in Best Musical candidate Groundhog Day.

Red carpet madness is just around the corner of Manhattan’s 5lst Street and Sixth Avenue, where Radio City Music Hall is buffing up its Deco sizzle and glam in preparation for Broadway’s biggest (televised) event: The 71st Annual Tony Awards. Hosted by a high-profile champion of the stage—he helmed London’s Old Vic for 11 years and has won Tony and Olivier statuettes—Kevin Spacey seems a first-rate choice to put Broadway’s 2016-2017 award-a-thon on the map (in a good…make that very good way). Plus, he strikes me as game for the singing, dancing, and schmoozing that round out a Tony emcee’s scorecard. As for this season’s nominees in key categories, well, let’s just say some are extremely obvious while others are anybody’s guess. And, I am happy to add, they are listed below with my commentaries and picks. 2017 TONY NOMINEES (predicted winners in red) Best Musical: Come From Away; Dear Evan Hansen; Groundhog Day; Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812 GM commentary: Every one of these new musicals is worthy of top honors, but Natasha, Pierre…is the clear frontrun56 www.cityguideny.com

ner. Potential dark horse spoiler: Come From Away. Best Play: A Doll’s House, Part 2; Indecent; Oslo; Sweat GM: Another killer category, with Sweat’s Pulitzer Prize giving it a slight edge. Still, I’m going out on a limb with A Doll’s House…there’s just something about this cast and script that put it over the top for me. PS: See every one of these plays…they are all brilliant and heart-wrenching in their own way. Best Revival of a Musical: Falsettos; Hello, Dolly!; Miss Saigon GM: No brainer. Best Revival of a Play: Jitney; The Little Foxes; Present Laughter; Six Degrees of Separation GM: I happen to love all of these productions, for different reasons…but Little Foxes’s re-emergence with Laura Linney and Cynthia Nixon alternating roles plus a dynamite supporting cast screams “Tony.” Best Leading Actor in a Play: Denis Arndt, Heisenberg; Chris Cooper, A Doll’s House, Part 2; Corey Hawkins, Six Degrees of Separation; Kevin Kline, Present

Best Leading Actress in a Play: Cate Blanchett, The Present; Jennifer Ehle, Oslo; Sally Field, The Glass Menagerie; Laura Linney, The Little Foxes; Laurie Metcalf, A Doll’s House, Part 2 GM: To be honest, it’s a face-off with Linney and Metcalf…but Linney is well overdue for a Tony and plays against type as Regina. Still, Metcalf had me enthralled every second she was onstage. Best Leading Actor in a Musical: Christian Borle, Falsettos; Josh Groban, Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812; Andy Karl, Groundhog Day; David Hyde Pierce, Hello Dolly!; Ben Platt, Dear Evan Hansen GM: Another no-brainer. But were there no Ben Platt, Andy Karl would surely pick up the trophy (Karl is universally beloved, injured himself onstage and finished the show, and, like Linney, is overdue for a Tony). Best Leading Actress in a Musical: Denée Benton, Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812; Christine Ebersole, War Paint; Patti LuPone, War Paint; Bette Midler, Hello, Dolly!; Eva Noblezada, Miss Saigon GM: Duh.

Best Featured Actor in a Play: Michael Aronov, Oslo; Danny DeVito, The Price; Nathan Lane, The Front Page; Richard Thomas, The Little Foxes; John Douglas Thompson, Jitney GM: Another tough category…and a close, close call with John Douglas Thompson well positioned for an upset.

Best Featured Actress in a Play: Johanna Day, Sweat; Jayne Houdyshell, A Doll’s House, Part 2; Cynthia Nixon, The Little Foxes; Condola Rashad, A Doll’s House, Part 2; Michelle Wilson, Sweat GM: While all the other contenders were definitely “featured,” Day’s and Wilson’s roles tore theatregoers in half in Sweat’s ensemble cast...plus Wilson brought me to tears. Best Featured Actor in a Musical: Gavin Creel, Hello, Dolly!; Mike Faist, Dear Evan Hansen; Andrew Rannells, Falsettos; Lucas Steele, Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812; Brandon Uranowitz, Falsettos GM: Every one of these guys is deserving, I just feel it’s Creel’s—and Dolly’s —time. Best Featured Actress in a Musical: Kate Baldwin, Hello, Dolly!; Stephanie J. Block, Falsettos; Jenn Colella, Come From Away; Rachel Bay Jones, Dear Evan Hansen; Mary Beth Peil, Anastasia GM: Both Block and Colella were spellbinding, but playing off audience reaction to Come From Away, I’m backing Colella. The American Theatre Wing’s 71st Annual Tony Awards air live on CBS, Sunday, June 11 (8-11pm); visit TonyAwards.com for more.

Matthew Murphy

Laughter; Jefferson Mays, Oslo GM: Kline’s is a tour de force performance in the only comedy up for grabs. Caveat: If Joe Mantello had been nominated for Glass Menagerie I probably would have picked him...so wonderful.

Ben Platt is a Tony favorite thanks to his extraordinary performance in Dear Evan Hansen.

Food and Art Come Together at Bevy

Bevy is one of NYC’s freshest dining destinations, bringing New American creativity to a sophisticated midtown space. The restaurant is helmed by Chef de Cuisine Chad Brauze, whose intriguing background includes stints with famed chefs Thomas Keller and Daniel Boulud, and degrees from both the Culinary Institute of America and Columbia University (Math and Science). Brauze’s dishes at Bevy are both elegant and rustic, set into a menu focused on grilled fish and meats. The results are as beautiful as the restaurant’s surroundings.

Bevy’s menu is arranged for both individual servings and larger plates. The shared dishes include a whole grilled market fish with chermoula, a memorable Moroccan herb sauce; a 40-ounce bone-in bison ribeye; and the house’s Green Circle Chicken, stuffed with bourbon and rye berries. For individual entrees, the skirt steak chimichurri, smoked pork collar, and rib cap by the half pound follow in close

suit, offering fresh grilled, roasted, and seared flavorings that demand savoring. Even Bevy’s “Bar Bites” menu includes mouth-watering items, like the housemade pull-apart bread made with caramelized onion and Boursin cheese, or the crispy candied bacon coated with cayenne and cinnamon. The restaurant’s two intimate dining rooms are finished in warm, wood-paneled walls, ombre rugs, and antique backlit mirrors. The restaurant plays host to a serious piece of art, Swarm Study / XI, a light sculpture that responds to daily rhythms in an organic way. The overall design creates a quintessential New York experience: bright lights, big city. Along with a large selection of champagnes, wines, ciders, beers, and sakes, Bevy also serves its own signature mix of specialty cocktails. The Intertwined, a tequila, amaro, banana liqueur, cinnamon syrup, lemon, and tiki bitters concoction will have your taste buds thanking you. No meal at Bevy is complete without a sampling of its beloved dessert menu. The eclairs are served as a plate of five, allowing patrons to sample an eclectic array of flavors that runs from carrot cake to pineapple upside down. There’s also a classic take on apple pie, which comes complete with caramel and vanilla bean ice cream. At Bevy, they think of everything.
