Art, theater and gardening


Last night my friend Margaret Russell of Elle Décor hosted a special fundraiser in partnership with AIDS Community Research Initiative of America (ACRIA) at 15 Union Square West, which I designed. There’s another art sale happening tonight from 6pm – you should be sure to pop in if you can. I stopped by last night on my way to the theater to see God of Carnage. I would tell you about it now, but it was so good that it warrants its own post – watch this space!

Speaking of theater, last week Thursday night I saw Happiness at the Lincoln Center. This musical is directed and choreographed by Susan Stroman (she also did The Producers), with music written by Scott Frankel the man who worked on Grey Gardens. It was really a very sweet and very touching play – see it if you can.

Now I’m heading out to the Hamptons to set up a wonderful job I did in Southampton – a small cottage, really charming that incorporates many good ideas which House Beautiful is photographing on Thursday and Friday. The following week I’m installing what is going to be a really wonderful job in Bridgehampton. The installation is going to take a minimum of four days. In between all the local traveling I’m out in the garden in Montauk hacking, planting, moving and getting dirt under my nails.
