Those of you in New York should check out Leipzig's Lubok Verlag table at the INDEPENDENT art fair this week. It's at the former DIA Center of the Arts, from March 4-7th. They've released a bunch of new books since their appearance at the Printed Matter Book Fair last fall, and we wish we could attend.

The INDEPENDENT is open to the public free of charge, and I'd recommend checking out their public programs schedule—lots of interesting panels.

Tonight, Bad Day hosts the New York Fashion Week Finissage and homecoming party for designer Rita Liefhebber. The event is being held at Double Double Land in Toronto’s Kensington Market, commencing at 8:00PM with DJs LBC & Baller followed by Bruce LaBruce and Rory Them Finest.

Peter Coffin (Issue 5) is a part of the Guggenheim’s current show, Contemplating the Void. For the exhibit, which marks the building’s 50th anniversary, nearly two hundred artists, architects, and designers were invited to imagine their dream interventions in the rotunda of the space.

Blues, the new guitar band featuring Sarah Richardson and Valerie Uher (ex-Creeping Nobodies, Memories Forever), just posted a sample of demo recordings on their Myspace page—the songs are so good we couldn’t wait till Monday to publish this entry. Here’s hoping that 2010 will be the year of Blues.
