Milk Gallery is showing a little skin for its first exhibition of 2012, Nudes for the New Year. The figurative group show includes work by Chris Daubert, Jose Di Gregorio, Alan Dismuke, Ianna Frisby, Troy Mighty, Annie Murphy-Robinson, John Tarahteeff, Garr Ugalde, Jesse Vasquez and gallery co-owner Melanie Bown. There will be live music by Swimming in Bengal and dance performances by Spencer Tregilgas at the reception, but SN&R could not confirm whether either would be done in the nude at the time of press. You’ll just have to show up and take your chances.
