The lazy days of summer are officially over. Art dinners are in full swing, galleries are now virtually all open, and RxArt with its and founder Diane Brown, hosted a nice little gathering this week along with Chanel Beauté at Highline Stages to raise money for charity and to serve a cocktail or two. The space was vast, the open bars weren’t competitive in terms of crowding, and plenty of good art was up for bid. Here are the highlights.
Artist cameos: Will Cotton, Rafael de Cardenas, Aaron Young, KAWS and Julia Chiang, Marco Brambilla, David Levinthal, Bill Powers, Jose Parla, among many others.
Missing in Action: Rob Pruitt, who designed the cover artwork for the RxArt’s 3rd annual coloring book. That illustration was the base for a very interactive marker wall at the bash.
Best new art supply: Chanel markers
Most excited bidder: Rag & Bone’s David Neville who bid on Levinthal’s Yankee homage during the early minutes of the party. “Let’s just hope they win the World Series this time!” exclaimed the die-hard Yankee fan.
Most popular artwork: Aurel Schmidt's cigarette stained piece which inspired a serious bidding war.
Most exciting current fashion/ art collab: Jason Wu x KAWS. “And yet, I missed the fashion show because of my LA opening,” grinned the artist.
Most exciting upcoming fashion/ art collab: Aurel Schmidt's current work with a big, French based brand. Watch this space for updates.
Best jock cameo: Rangers’ fashion and art loving Sean Avery
