Warm up this weekend with great openings and events including Thomas Ovlisen's "Tomato" at Klaus von Nichtssagend on Friday, followed by the closing party of Printed Histories at Exit Art and the opening of winter exhibitions at Art in General on Saturday. For even more, this Sunday head to MoMA PS1 for the Winter Open House and the e-flux book co-op lecture series.

Also, films by Charles Atlas will be screened in two venues: tonight at Light Industry and on Wednesday night Dirty Looks will bring him in person to The Judson Memorial Church; not to mention that his work will also inaugurate Luhring Augustine's new space in Bushwick later in February and his participation in the 2012 Whitney Biennial. Make sure not to miss his fantastic films this week.
