ART: Artist Adrienne Leban (artwork pictured) has been a professor at the School of Visual Arts for almost four decades; her new work is done entirely free-hand, without sketches or instruments, in India ink on wood, watercolor paper, or canvas. (It’s terrific; check it out.) This weekend’s three-day exhibit inaugurates the new Corey Gallery; part of the proceeds will benefit the Susan G. Komen Foundation, the world’s largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists. - John Del Signore

It's not quite the lusty month of May yet, but spring fever is already gripping the denizens of the city. So for your monthly dose of sexy scribes, head down to Happy Ending Lounge (302 Broome St.) for the monthly In The Flesh Erotic Reading Series. This month's theme is True Confessions, featuring comedian Dan Allen, blogger and novelist Jessica Cutler (The Washingtonienne), Columbia Spectator sex columnist Miriam Datskovsky, among others, and hosted by the fabulous Rachel Kramer Bussel. It starts at 8PM and is free.

This week's issue of New York magazine is the Annual Sex Issue, with alarming and titillating articles about marriage with benefits (dude, marriage is so cool!), and the old gay man scene (you know, baldness is a sign of extra testosterone), but the article that captivated Gothamist was the sex columnist roundtable, which included our very sexy contributor, Rachel Kramer Bussel, who writes for the Village Voice and Penthouse (her picture, at right). Other columnists (all of them female) were Stephanie Klein, DC sex-fiend Jessica Cutler, former Redbook-now Penthouse contributor Elise Nersesian, our alma mater's paper's sex columnist Miriam Datskovsky (all the good things at Columbia happen AFTER we leave), and NY magazine columnist Amy Sohn. We tip our hat to these ladies, because Lord knows we wouldn't be able to handle our high school teacher telling us he reads a sex column we wrote. But it's good to know that doing antidepressants and coke makes one write faster - we'd been wondering that.
