This contemporary-arts museum has moved closer to the mainstream in recent years, but it's only a safety margin in from the edge as far as most of us are concerned. Expect adventurous and well-curated exhibitions. Previous schedules have included Portrait of the Lost Boys, New Zealander Jacqueline Fraser's moving narrative made of sumptuous fabric and fragile wire sculptures that examines the high incidence of suicide among teenage boys in New Zealand, and "John Waters: Change of Life," photographs by the filmmaker who brought us Pink Flamingos and Hairspray. In late 2007, the museum will move to a new 60,000-square-foot, $35-million home on the Bowery at Prince Street. It will be the first new art museum ever constructed from the ground up below 14th Street.
