To-Do, This Weekend: Guerra de la Paz, Morning After Girls, or David Pajo
Friday:
• Guerra de la Paz, the collaborative team of Cuban artists Alain Guerra and Neraldo de la Paz, makes its NYC debut tonight at Jack the Pelican. The exhibit features a number of startling images, including a headless Pieta that sent us searching for the nearest toilet. [Jack the Pelican Presents]
• Continuing with the startling image trend, the first scene of Battle in Heaven,, a film from Mexican director Carlos Reygadas, portrays a "wealthy family's daughter giving her much older chauffer fellatio." Startling for some, average for the UES. [flavorpill]
Saturday:
• For those of you yearning for junior high sleepovers, or for those of you who weren't popular enough in junior high to get invited and thus looking to recreate the magic, PILLOW FIGHT! Negligees optional. [NMS]
• Their show at Webster Hall may be sold out, but the Morning After Girls offer a late-night set at the R&R after-party. Hop on board before they start DJing at Misshapes. R&R, 416 W. 14th St, Midnight.
Sunday:
• The Knitting Factory hosts "sonic travelers" David Pajo and Tara Jane O'Neil. It may sound like a Star Trek reference, but they make music. Really. [flavorpill]
