10 Bronze Eroded Pentax Camera at The Baths of Blackwolf Run_Arsham in Kohler (Wis) (2) Large 2

20 Jul Daniel Arsham cabin at Destination Kohler/Forbes

Daniel Arsham’s exhibitions draw throngs of adoring fans, but his latest installation has remained fairly under the radar. That could be due to its unlikely location: a cabin on Lake Michigan in rural Wisconsin. It’s the fifth and latest addition to the Kohler Cabin Collection at Destination Kohler, a large resort known primarily for golf (it boasts four championship courses) and a world-class spa. The addition of Arsham’s cabin catapults the resort, owned by the Kohler Company, to bucket-list status as a destination for fans of the artist, considered by many to be one of the most important of his...

11 Jun Bryan O’Sullivan profile/Forbes.com

The name Bryan O’Sullivan may not immediately ring any bells. But if you’ve enjoyed a cocktail at the famed Red Room bar in London’s Connaught Hotel, booked the penthouse at Claridge’s (or enjoyed dinner at the iconic property’s restaurant) or checked into Maybourne’s luxe properties in Beverly Hills or just outside Monte Carlo (in Roquebrune-Cap Martin) then you’ve experienced interiors that he’s designed.

09 Jun Men’s jewelry story/Galerie

Men’s jewelry is having a moment: The Iron Claw actor Jeremy Allen White sported a Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany Bird on a Rock brooch to the Screen Actors Guild Awards. Trevor Noah donned a version of the same iconic style for the Grammy Awards. Bad Bunny hit the Oscars red carpet clad in Cartier, while Colman Domingo chose pieces from David Yurman’s new High Jewelry collection. Considering the vast array of choices now available—and Father’s Day looming on June 16—now is the perfect time to eschew the traditional gifts for Dad in lieu of something unexpected, but sure to delight. These...

29 May Benjamin Abramowitz at 1818/Galerie

Benjamin Abramowitz is perhaps one of the most prolific artists in recent times with almost zero name recognition. That will undoubtedly change with an exhibition of his works debuting this weekend at 1818 Collective in Sag Harbor, in collaboration with Galerie Provenance. The latter is owned by Sheila Bouttier, the only grandchild of the late Abramowitz. A former Senior Vice President of Telepictures/Warner Bros. and ABC Daytime, Bouttier runs Galerie Provenance from her Los Angeles home, which is chock full of his works in mediums ranging from paintings to inks on paper to sculptures. “I’ve never had anyone come to...

28 May Philip Johnson’s Brick House now open for tours/Forbes.com

The Glass House in New Canaan, CT is on every architecture fan's bucket list, and has been open to the public since 2007. The Brick House, which debuted earlier than the Glass House (but the same year), hasn't been open since 2008 because of water damage. But it's been restored, is now open, and I got a sneak peak a few weeks ago. Read the whole article, including many fun facts, here. Photo credit: Michael Biondo...

17 May Mary Katrantzou for Bulgari/Alexa

Mary Katrantzou, the London-based fashion designer known for her audacious color sensibility, has been named the first-ever creative director of Bulgari leather goods and accessories. While her debut collection in this new position launches in August, the award-winning designer’s relationship with the brand (which celebrated its 75th anniversary last year) dates to her 2019 couture show (at the Temple of Poseidon in Greece) where models were swathed in heritage Bulgari High Jewelry. A capsule collection of “Serpenti Through the Eyes Of” bags followed two years later, which saw the so-called “Queen of Prints” rethinking Bulgari’s iconic serpent motif in gold-plated brass...

Christian Louboutin collaborated on a collection of chairs with his friend, the famed interior designer Pierre Yovanovitch.

Who doesn't love Venice? Despite significant issues with overcrowding due to tourism, the City of Canals remains alluring to the creative set. “Everyone wants to come here, for the Biennale but also for Venice,” says Karole Vail, director of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation director for Italy. Read why, here.  ...

Every year I'm tasked with finding interesting stylists, historians and other in-the-know jewelry types to quiz about a variety of things including their first jewelry splurge, dream jewel and favorite red carpet moment. Stylist-to-the-stars Cristina Ehrlich and Claibourne Poindexter, the VP/Senior Specialist in Christie's Jewellery Department weighed in this year. You can see their answers here. ...
