In addition to walls adorned in surprising pairings of artwork decades apart, the opening of Robert Kushner: Then & Now (February 16 - March 25, 2023 at DC Moore Gallery) offered an art “re-happening”. Family and friends participated in a conceptual reprise of “New York Hatline.” The 2023 version has been named "New York Hat Line: The Beat Goes On."
I’ve included some images of the evening here, plus a truly must-see seventies film clip where Ed Friedman and I not only model our mesmerizing, fantastical hat collection, we describe each one in lush, scintillating detail. In keeping with the theme of Then & Now, what an honor to have my ‘collaborateur-extraordinaire’ participate in the 2023 reprisal. Every time the hats come out, everyone has fun.
Thank you to everyone in attendance!
