EVERYBODY KNOWS THIS IS NOWHERE

RYAN MCGINLEY "EVERYBODY KNOWS THIS IS NOWHERE" OPENS AT TEAM

Ryan McGinley is best known for his photographs taken on cross-country, nudist road trips. In the Summer of 2007, he embarked on one and brought sixteen models, three assistants, and shot 4,000 rolls of film. Out of it came many critically acclaimed pictures of beautiful, naked models frolicking whimsically among waterfalls and forests. But tonight, McGinley unveils something completely different, "Everybody Knows This is Nowhere," an exhibit of all black and white portraiture taken in a New York studio (gasp!). For these portraits, McGinley brought in 150 different models and photographed them against a simple white backdrop. Don't worry, everyone's still naked.

Team Gallery, 83 Grand St., (212) 279-9219. 6 p.m. Free. Through Apr. 17.
