[Emmett Shine and James Cruickshank] Apparently not everyone was at the polo on Saturday - those of more of an artistic set were celebrating the opening of The LOLA Gallery at 85 Jobs Lane in Southampton. With arms wide open, the community welcomed back LOLA, as Southampton is where this laidback gallery got it’s original groundings. The gallery, which is located right in the heart of the village across from Agawam Park, held host to a lively crowd for the opening reception including James Cruickshank, Emmett Shine, Harley Viera-Newton, Marc and Vanessa Packer, Tripoli Patterson, Max Barbaria and Suzanne Diaz of Max & Suzanne, and Genevieve Hudson-Price.

[Jessica Craig-Martin's "Air Kiss", Cancer Benefit, Southampton 2006]
Even if fashion photography isn’t really your thing, there’s still a good chance you might want Jessica Craig-Martin’s pictures adorning the walls of your Hamptons abode (or anywhere else for that matter).

And there’s an entire set of these conversation starters that were taken - where else? - in the East End. More »

Saturday night, we found ourselves under the gracious party tent at Australian art dealer Andy Valmorbida’s Southampton compound. It was a celebration to honor the launch of Raphael Mazzucco’s new book: “The Collected Art” designed by Giovanni Russo with a forward by Carine Roitfeld. Raphael’s work was on display around the periphery of the tent. It sold out before the party was over. The photo of Adriana Lima was the most popular. At the party, I ran into friends I hadn’t seen in years, and some I see each week. With over 600 people there, it was easy to discover acquantainces around each corner. Lauren Santo Domingo was there as well as Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, Brittny Gastineau, Rachel Heller, and models Anne V., Mary Flynn, and many others.
