For 70 minutes today, in the Museum of Modern Art’s sculpture garden, Andy Warhol will be showing us Taylor Mead’s ass in a special screening of the movie by that name. iPhone says there’s going to be a thunderstorm at that time, but that’s also kind of awesome (rain date tomorrow, call ahead). Presented by Dirty Looks. —Dan Duray
MoMA, 11 West 53rd Street., New York, 8:30 p.m. $12

Workshop: A Summer Salon with Karen Finley at the Guggenheim
“Internationally acclaimed artist and educator” (per the Guggenheim’s website) Karen Finley begins her four days of courses at the museum today, aimed at “encourag[ing] cross-generational dialogue.” It sounds expensive and intense, but also fun. (Image courtesy University of Pennsylvania.) —D.D.
The Guggenheim, 1071 5th Avenue, 10 a.m.–1 p.m., through July 11, $240 general admission, $160 members, $120 students and interns

Opening: “Hair and Skin” at Derek Eller Gallery
This group show, helmed by Derek Eller’s Isaac Lyles “presents the body in extremes to explore the potential of physical empathy and bodily resonance,” according to its news release.

Opening: “Bathers” at Morgan Lehman
Summer is all about the beach, water and flesh, and so this sounds like one great summer group show, focusing on that time-honored Modernist subject, the bather. Among the 13 young artists providing work are Gina Beavers, Melissa Brown (whose work is pictured), Hope Gangloff, Daniel Heidkamp, Ryan Schneider and Ruby Sky Stiler. —A.R.
