☞ SEE: Only in New York: Photos from LOOK

Exploring New York City from the mid-1940s until the early 1960s, the exhibition Only in New York: Photographs from LOOK Magazine accompanies the publication of the first-ever book devoted to the museum's extraordinary LOOK photography collection. To LOOK's editors and photographers, among them Stanley Kubrick, New York was both a newly emergent international capital of world-class museums and glamorous nightclubs as well as a hometown for millions who rode its subways and thrilled to its baseball teams. We especially like the exhibit for its candid take on everyday life in the New York City of that time period. Images vary from the churches of central Harlem or the night streets of East Harlem, mixed in with photos of celebrities and the movers and shakers of the time. Catch it at the Museum of the City of New York in East Harlem until April 2010. The Museum of the City of New York is at 1220 Fifth Avenue, between 103rd and 104th Street. Nearest subway is the 6 train at 103rd Street or 2,3 at 110th Street. www.mcny.org
