8 Things Penny Dreadful Can Teach Us About Romance

June 30, 2014/in Date Tips /by Guest Blogger

The season finale of Penny Dreadful was just last night. As I lament over the end of Season 1, and look forward to season 2, I can’t help but to think about how some of the romantic elements in the show can apply to dating in real life.
So Penny Dreadful isn’t really romantic, with all the violence and horror, but there are a lot of titillating scenes and romantic subplots that can teach us a thing or two about spicing up our love lives.
1) Walks in arboretums can be quite flirtatious.

2) Surprise your date with a really good date.
Brona had never been to the theater before, so just look at how elated she is when Ethan surprises her by taking her one night! Bonus: he buys her an orange.

3) Play music to set the mood when you’re together.

4) Sexy Boudoir photoshoots can really spice things up.

5) Sincere compliments are ALWAYS appreciated.

6) Have intriguing conversations over dinner.
Bonus points if it’s candlelit and classy, too.

7) Asking for consent is always appreciated.
If a spoiled, manipulative, and immortal brat like Dorian can ask for consent, so can everyone else.

8) But above all, be there for each other as confidantes and trusted loved ones.
Proceed as one

Not the same Andy Warhol

March 28, 2012/in Date Ideas, NYC /by CMB

It is not an overstatement if we say Andy Warhol is one of the most well known Pop artists. The painting of Campbell’s soup cans Marilyn Monroe are all too familiar with us. However Andy Warhol had more to him than just his paintings. He was a well respected photographer himself, and this exhibition, “Andy Warhol: Photographer” is a chance for the public to see.

“Andy Warhol: Photographer” is an exhibition of 143 unique prints and is the first gallery show that purely focuses on his photographic products.

Francesca Woodman @ Guggenheim

Francesca Woodman (click for further info)

Francesca Woodman was a photographer who was known for her black and white photos, which mainly featured herself and other female models. Most of her work contain nudity and blurred images that have a haunting yet compelling effect on the viewers.

Woodman’s career came to an end too soon when she committed suicide at a young age of 22 in 1981. Her short but solid career will be shared at this exhibit with more than 120 photographs and her short films will be on view as well.

 

Location: Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (1071 Fifth Ave. between 88th and 89th Sts)

When: OPENS Friday 3/16 through 6/13

Cindy Sherman Exhibit @ MoMA

March 5, 2012/in Date Ideas, NYC /by CMB

CINDY SHERMAN EXHIBIT

Exhibit runs until June 11, 2012.
I love NYC for all the museums people can stop by to immerse themselves into cultural richness. One minute you’re running around town through the dirtiest streets and next thing you know, you’re walking into MoMA to be enlightened by all the great work at the exhibits. Or maybe you just went to go to the uber awesome MoMA store- either way MoMA is the place to go to for whatever reason.
I’ve only seen a couple of her work in the past and am excited myself to go to her exhibit at MoMA. She is not only the photographer, but she also puts herself into her work-literally. If you and your date both have interest in contemporary art and photography this should be your next stop.
