What’s this world coming to when you you have to go into bars to find art? Ummm, a pretty fan-fucking-tastic place is what. One of the best things about the ‘Burg is that art will hit you in the face everywhere (um, not literally — art isn’t that much of a douche), and if there’s a wall space anywhere in town, there’s a good chance that, at some point, there’ll be an art exhibit hanging on it. That’s the case with the Cruel Summer photography exhibit at The Bends, featuring work from Stephanie Agudelo, Todd Bates, Angelina Bruno, Caroline Elise, Adam Gray, Emelle Lee, Brian Mahar, Mari Sabra, Anand Sheth and Madi Tisch. Join ’em at the opening reception.
