NO WAVE: POST PUNK. UNDERGROUND. NEW YORK 1976-1980 (Abrams Image)
Who better to document the late '70s experimental art punk movement than Sonic Youth's wild child Thurston Moore and respected rock journalist Byron Coley? These two music fiends have compiled a book of striking live photos and personal interviews with No Wave's finest forbearers, including James Chance, Glenn Branca and Brian Eno. CB


USELESS MAGAZINE
Each issue of this independent bi-annual New York culture and art magazine is packed with revealing interviews, well-versed essays and edgy photography. Issue seven,
A Star-Shaped Enterprise, features actor Brendan Sexton photographed by Marcelo Krasilcic, the apocalyptic musings of Agathe Snow and much more enlightenment.

ART


LIKE IT A LITTLE, V&A Gallery, New York
Featuring the contemporary figurative works of Natalie Frank, Selma Hafizovic, Jocelyn Hobbie and i-D art writer Kathy Grayson, V&A's Stateside exhibit aims to draw out the mixed emotions of its viewers. Between Hobbie's aloofly lounging ladies and Grayson's forced family portraits, the common thread is the tension and sense of detachment between the characters within each painting. CB
