ABC No Rio has been a hub for LES radicals and artists for over a quarter of a century, and now it's set for demolition (but don't worry, reconstruction is in the works, too). To raise funds and pay tribute to those working within its crumbling walls, the building-wide Ides of March exhibition showcases communal, collective artworks. Stairwells accommodate massive plaster beehive cells and subway color grids; whole rooms dedicate themselves to war imagery, oversized tetra helmets, and universal loopholes. View future floor plans, drink some home brew, and buy a jar of historic rubble at this last hurrah.
