2 x 2 = FUN

Last week was lots of fun as it was the 2x2 for aids and art benefiting amFAR and the Dallas Museum of Art. This year was the 10 year special, held (as always) at The Rachofsky House.
Above is great picture of Jenny, Jessica, Chris Gonzalez and Nikki. You go Chris surrounding yourself with Beauty !!

Nikki and Jenny....Bless

Howard and Cindy Rachofsky.

The Thursday night was the First Look preview, which was so much fun. The Polyphonic Spree played. They are the best band in Dallas hands down.

ART WILL FLOWER AND TRIUMPH

Recessions are hard on people, but they are not hard on art. The forties, seventies, and the nineties, when money was scarce, were great periods, when the art world retracted but it was also reborn. New generations took the stage; new communities spawned energy; things opened up; deadwood washed away. With luck, New Museum curator Laura Hoptman’s wish will come true: “Art will flower and triumph not as a hobby, an investment, or a career, but as what it is and was—a life.”

We will see who is left standing.

FRIEZE (whateva) PART 2

We liked everyone at The Lisson Gallery so much that we stopped by their party.

ERHHHH

Rolling 6 deep to the White Cube party....how glamorous

The White Cube party was off the chain. It was in an old building with lots of different rooms. You could spend hours walking around meeting people and having fun.

FRIEZE (init) PART 1

So....upon returning from London for the art fair Frieze here are some pics of what we thought were the highlights.

Before the fair opened we stopped by The Lisson Gallery to get a sneak preview of Julian Opie's new show. I have to say it is incredible !!

Julian's new works are amazing !!

The time has come for Tim & Sue to end. If you didn't see the show, oh well its too late.

The once blacked out exhibition space now laid barren. Like the phoenix rising from the ashes, a new exhibition will appear.
