LOCATION 100 Forsyth Sreet New York, NY 10002 more infos:  http://www.grotto-nyc.com/ WELCOME ​ ​ ​ Hidden on the fringes of the Lower East Side and Chinatown, a set of stairs bring you into a cozy space, filled with the scent of herbs, freshly prepared foods and hospitality. Inspired by many summers in the south of Italy and the typical small island restaurants, this inconspicuous Lower East Side sou-terrain was turned into a small cozy osteria with a lush romantic garden in the midst of our frenzied city. In 2003 “Grotto” was born and has been serving a NYC crowd of regulars and aficionados ever since. GARDEN ​ ​ Keep walking through the "Dark Room" and the Garden will reveal itself. You first stumble upon a cherry tree and its circular seating, cozy candlelight and over abundant vegetation. Look further to the left and you will see "The Romano", a thirty seat wooden pergola surrounded by hanging ivy and wisteria. ​ Our garden is a...

Anne Geoffroy's painstakingly rendered drawings and sculptures evoke her lost childhood, and suggest a cumbersome family legacy laden with secrets. In search of an identity, Geoffrey questions how and what we transmit to future generations. She refers to some of her drawings as "les Fantômes," or the ghosts, and to some of her sculptures as "les Héritières," the heiresses. These pieces have a haunted quality, and carry the weight of her own past and that of her family. Isabel Brito-Farre, a native Spanish artist who lived in New York but recently moved back to Spain, makes stitched...
