Neal Medlyn with Ulrika Andersson "Made In Heaven" in Long Island City
2026-03-25 19:00 | The Chocolate Factory, 38-33 24th Street, Long Island City, NY
Made in Heaven is a new performance and visual art piece by and video. Inspired by the Jeff Koons/Cicciolina art disaster, and following large scale works by Medlyn on themes of death and God, Made in Heaven is about sex and the doomed and comic creation of something alluring, menacing, and holy.
Having appeared in many of New York’s bars, nightclubs and alternative performance venues since the early 2000s, Medlyn’s longstanding performance art practice – in close collaboration with Andersson’s practice as a painter – closely and cannily mirrors that of Cicciolina and Koons, whose notorious personal and professional collaboration, also titled Made In Heaven, premiered in 1989 and was disastrously received.
Medlyn and Andersson are drawn to artistic disasters: their own, those of others, famous ones. Placing Medlyn’s past as a go-go boy in the East Village in the early 2000s, when he first moved to New York – and his early, sexualized performance works, with titles like Neal Medlyn, the Paris Hilton of Performance Art (2003), Manfinger (2004), Neal Medlyn is Highly Sexualized and in Danger (2005), and I Shock People by Showing Them My Breasts (2005) – into conversation with Andersson’s current visual art practice with sex workers, Made In Heaven becomes a surprising and interdisciplinary container for their shared interest in the overlaps between the visual art world, the performance world, the service industry, and the sex work industry: all exist in these precarious, ephemeral spaces, all create more or less fleeting ecstasies, all are somewhat harrowing and also manage to be somehow beautiful.
Made In Heaven strives not to be a show about sex, but rather a show that feels like sex – seeking the “vague alarm” with which art critic Peter Schjeldahl described his response to the Koons / Cicciolina project.
In Medlyn’s words: “I’ve seen far too many bad art shows and bad performances “about” sex and so we are trying to make a show that’s like sex, the often sudden, sometimes subtle shifts from the outer to the inner world. What we see, how we touch, what is a good time, what is beyond what we can imagine, what is awkward, what reminds you of the edge of your body and what takes away all words, what makes you laugh, what can flatten you.”

Ricardo Y Rey @ Sub-Mission, NYC
2026-05-27 19:00 - 22:00 | Sub-Mission, 7 East 17th Street, New York, 10003, United States
Rhythm Nights at Sub-Mission feature an intimate live performance by Ricardo y Rey, a genre-defying duo known for their deep rhythmic language and global musical reach. Led by guitarist and vocalist Ricardo Quiñones and percussionist Reinaldo Dejesus, Ricardo y Rey craft a sound rooted in tradition yet unmistakably modern. Drawing from Bomba y Plena, electro-afrobeat, and subtle reggaetón undertones, their music moves effortlessly between groove, melody, and emotion – inviting listeners to lean in, connect, and stay present. Individually, both artists are Grammy-winning collaborators who have toured and recorded alongside some of the most influential voices in contemporary music, including Lauryn Hill, India Arie, Alicia Keys, Antibalas, and Arturo O’Farrill. Their work carries both credibility and curiosity – music that feels lived-in, expansive, and alive.

The Roy Hargrove Big Band
Sunday May 31 • RWJBarnabas Plaza Stage @ 6pm
Originally started in the rehearsal space that would later become the Jazz Gallery, the Roy Hargrove Big Band had its inaugural performance at the Panasonic Village Jazz Festival in 1995. Since then, the band has toured domestically and internationally and has played everywhere from the Blue Note Tokyo to the Hollywood Bowl. As with everything Roy, his broad musical range is evident in his big band. You can expect to hear everything from his quintet compositions, bebop and lush ballads to soulful funk, hip-hop, and Latin songs. The arrangements are comprised of Roy’s original works, timeless standards and new music by band members and other contemporaries whom he respected.
In 2022 Roy Hargrove Legacy, the company founded by his wife and daughter re-launched The Roy Hargrove Big Band to continue Roy’s music, spirit and the big band sound that he loved. A true all-star cast consisting of mostly original band members with the addition of a few bright, young talents, this powerhouse ensemble continues to electrify audiences and bring down the house at every performance. Brilliantly lead on stage by Bruce Williams, lead alto and big band member since 1997, and Jason Marshall, baritone saxophonist and also long-time member of the big band, who serves as second conductor. Roy’s wife Aida Brandes-Hargrove is the band’s executive and artistic director.
In addition to performing at venues and festivals across the country the big band is now in its fifth year of its successful monthly residency at The Jazz Gallery, the iconic NYC venue co-founded by Roy. Last year marked the 30th anniversary for both The Jazz Gallery and The Roy Hargrove Big Band, a testament to the enduring legacy of one of jazz’s most influential trumpeters. This anniversary celebrates not only the history of jazz but also its thriving future, as the band continues to honor Roy’s visionary spirit while pushing the boundaries of the big band sound.
