The concept of a “hall pass” — an agreement allowing a partner to sleep with one specific person without repercussions — has left a noticeable mark on pop culture. It pops up in an episode of Friends (where Ross’ surprisingly cool picks included Winona Ryder and Isabella Rossellini) and even inspired an entire comedy film of the same name. Think of it as the celebrity crush fantasy, but with an actual green light. Artist Jamie Bradley has taken this idea a step further, curating an art show centered on the theme of hall passes, and she’s invited her friends to contribute. The results are odes to some unexpectedly delightful figures — like David Meaney’s oak relief of Amy Sedaris as her bizarre-but-alluring Strangers With Candy character Jerri Blank, or Rachel Briggs’ drawing of Morten Harket, the lead singer of A-ha, who was immortalized as a hot comic-strip character in the video for “Take On Me.” There are paintings of Judge Judy and Seinfeld’s Elaine Benes, and a briefcase full of Polaroids of Sam Waterston as Det. Jack McCoy from Law & Order. From the press release: “This group exhibition invites artists and non-artists alike to tap into the power of yearning, the nostalgia of obsession, and the thrill of impossible attraction — all through a creative lens.” LAURA HUTSON HUNTER
