Show recent posts starting at a specific number archive

Question

Is there an argument to define how many posts ago will be displayed in "recent" posts. Could I add something to this and define a specific number of posts ago to start the loop?

$args = array( 'numberposts' => '5' );
$recent_posts = wp_get_recent_posts( $args );

So for example I have a page of archives with their excerpts for the last 5 posts. In the sidebar I would like to show other posts from that category, starting with 6 posts ago.
