Openings & Parties: Ouattara Watts – Vertigo
Last night to a packed house Vladimir Restoin Roitfeld presented Vertigo, an exhibition of fifteen new paintings from Neo-Expressionist painter Ouattara Watts. Even though large in scale, the paintings were no match for the 1000+ crowd of fashionable people who came to celebrate. Christos Katsiaouni was on hand to photograph some of them.
Vertigo will run through February 19, 2012 at 560 Washington Street, New York, NY.
Openings & Parties: Sandro Kopp – There You Are
The crowd that filled the gallery rooms of Lehman Maupin for Sandro Kopp’s opening was an array that are normally seen on screens both big and small. Quite fitting actually, since this series of portraits were made by the artist during skype sessions with the same such people.

Kalup Linzy in the Boom Boom Room
Until last night at the debut of the 2011 StandART video series at the Top of the Standard, I had never seen a man barefoot, donning a wig and tiny, terrycloth bathrobe singing beautiful, entertaining songs that many floors up in a building. Kalup Linzy reminds me of a cross between Cody Chestnutt and Wesley Willis. In regards to the new videos curated by Creative Time for The Standard Hotel chain, Terence Koh’s ”Rabbit Holy Days” which was filmed onsite on the eighteenth floor was the standout amongst peers.
