I checked the FAQ and didn't see anything for C# listed. I know of one the Tao Framework. Any recommendations for other libraries (used recently)?

What you want is OpenTK. Fiddler on these forums is one of the developers (lead? I dunno) and I'm sure he'll jump in here soon enough.

+1 on OpenTK. Works great with Mono too (there used to be winforms deps but i think those've been weeded out by now).

I've not used Tao myself but based on the FAQ, Tao uses 1:1 OpenGL api, wheras OpenTK tries to C#ify it (which i think is great). See here: http://www.opentk.com/doc/faq

Definitely go with OpenTK, it's actively being developed and much more current than the TaoFramework. I believe OpenTK is up to date with at least OpenGL 3.0 while Tao is still at 2.1 (is Tao even being maintained anymore?).
