Lonely Planet review for PS1 Contemporary Art Center

If you’re going to MoMA anyway, keep your ticket stub for free entry to this superb alternative-space location (a former 19th-century public school) featuring excellent exhibits of modern art. (Expect lots of video installations: ‘Impressionism? No, thanks.’) Rooms are evocative, old student haunts, with wired-off stairwell shafts, high ceilings and white-painted and creaky wooden floorboards. The cafe has wine – plus sketches of naked people on the walls. In summertime the ‘Warm Up’ Series fills the outside space with widely popular parties featuring DJs and a mix of bands.
