Vincent Van Gogh's 1889 Starry Night is one of the most famous and recognizable paintings in the world. Many have seen it, but do you really know anything about it, or its creator? In this short video from New York Magainze, watch as an art critic helps passersby in the New York City subway explore the painting.

Vincent Van Gogh’s Starry Night is one of the most recognizable paintings in all of art history, and has become a textbook example of “post-impressionist” painting. But its aesthetic beauty is often intertwined with the tortured life story of its creator — he painted it while staying in an asylum, only a few months before his death, a rumored suicide.

Visit "Starry Night" in person at the Museum of Modern Art.

There is an art form to making the most out of your tiny New York City apartments, and this Brooklyn woman certainly does in her 288-square-foot studio in Fort Greene. See how Akirah Ismail does it in her apartment in this short video from our friends at Apartment Therapy.

Akhira Ismail is beautiful and brilliant and welcoming and warm, and her apartment is no different. With only 288 square feet and a modest budget, she's created a space so stylish and functional that when you see the photos, you may want to move in immediately.
