Thank you cousin Harvey Oshinsky

We saw Downton Abbey : A New Era tonight. We really enjoyed it. We recommend. Great seeing old friends on the screen. 60 seats in Regal theater, Lincoln Road. 10 people showed up. Usher said this is not a popular movie for the young folks of Miami Beach. Good for us.

The Perez Art Museum Miami celebrates the work of Marisol Escobar who was never given the proper recognition in the 1960’s art pop movement. While she drew thousands to her gallery exhibits and received tons of positive press over the years, she was not revered like the “New York Five”: Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Tom Wesselmann, James Rosenquist, and Claes Oldenburg. Women artists were treated second class. PAMM, plus others museums, are finally paying tribute to this exciting artist who created the most outrageous and fun sculptures. You must see this in person.

For the last few months, I have been listening to books authored by Truman Capote, or books written about him. I have to remind myself during the day that I am not one of Capote’s friends. I am so caught up in his world that I forget my age and the unlikelihood of my involvement with the New York “Ladies Who Lunch.” It’s great fantasy for me now. It brings me back to my NYC days at WWD and HWH PR where I rubbed elbows with people in the news.

I wish I knew Capote. He was such a character. Eliot and I love oddballs. They make life so interesting. We live vicariously through them. Poor Capote. He ratted out his famous friends and then they sent him into oblivion. Here is an article from Esquire magazine decades ago that explains what happened.

📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚📚

Capote was the darling of an inner circle he called his swans—Babe Paley, Slim Keith, Lee Radziwill, C. Z. Guest, Gloria Guinness, Marella Agnelli. He was their baby wizard, their bitchy sister, their father confessor. They told him who had slept between the Porthault sheets and where all the bodies were buried.

Exposing The Rich And Famous: Truman Capote and ‘La Côte Basque 1965’

If In Cold Blood made Truman Capote, his piece La Côte Basque 1965 broke him. Published in Esquire in 1975, the 13,000-word social piece exposed all of Capote’s best friends’ secrets. These were not just average, everyday secrets, rather they were all about his swans. He published the secrets of his rich, high-society friends- some of the most powerful individuals in New York in the 60s and 70s. Here, we break down all of the claims in Capote’s piece and the reactions that came as a result of it.

Truman Capote had burst onto the literary scene at age 23 when his first novel, Other Voices, Other Rooms, was published. Seventeen years later, in 1965, Capote published his “non-fiction” book In Cold Blood, which brought him international fame, fortune, and wealth. At the height of mid-century New York, there was nothing more glamorous and fabulous than Truman Capote’s inner circle of beautiful, wealthy, socialite women that he affectionately labeled his swans.

These swans included names such as Barbara “Babe” Paley, Nancy “Slim” Keith, “Princess” Lee Radziwill, Lucy Douglas “C.Z.” Guest, Gloria Guinness, and Marella Agnelli. What captured Capote’s imagination about his swans was not necessarily the money they all possessed but the stories they had to tell. It would ultimately be these stories that would be Capote’s downfall.

Babe Paley was a fashion editor at Vogue and married to the incredibly wealthy founder of CBS, William S. Paley. Nancy “Slim” Keith was so slender and beautiful that she was featured in almost every issue of Harper’s Bazaar in the mid-forties. Slim’s first husband, film director Howard Hawks, had used her as a model for his screen heroines, including Lauren Bacall.

C.Z. Guest had been born into money in Boston, but initially rebelled against high society, choosing to work as a showgirl and posing nude for Diego Rivera. The picture he painted used to hang above the bar of Mexico City’s Reforma Hotel. Gloria Guinness captured Capote with her rags-to-riches story. She overcame years of poverty to emerge triumphant as the wife of Loel Guinness, who was a member of one of Britain’s banking families.

“Princess” Lee Radziwill, sister of Jacqueline Kennedy, married a former Polish prince who became friends with Capote in the 1960s. Marella Agnelli was another one of Capote’s swans. She was married to Fiat chairman Gianni Agnelli, and Capote often referred to her as “the European swan numero uno.”

The stories in “La Côte Basque”

“La Côte Basque 1965” was published in Esquire magazine in 1975. Initially, the story was intended to be the fifth chapter of a Capote novel titled Answered Prayers, which was never completed. The title refers to Henri Soulé’s restaurant located in New York City, across from the St. Regis Hotel. However, the plot for this short story was taken from all the gossip and stories he had heard from his swans over the many years.

“La Côte Basque 1965” unfolds like a long, gossipy conversation between the main character, Jonesy, and Lady Ina Coolbirth. Lady Ina Coolbirth is rumored to be based on Slim Keith, as Capote describes this character as a “big breezy preppy broad” from the American West, who is now married to an English aristocrat – a description that largely fits that of Slim Keith’s. Jonesy and Lady Ina Coolbirth meet on a New York street and decide to have lunch at La Côte Basque, where they observe and talk about the other patrons dining with them.

There are many other socialites present at lunch with Lady Coolbirth and Jonesy in Capote’s short story. Babe Paley is there with her sister Betsey Whitney, Lee Radziwill is there with her sister Jacqueline Kennedy, and Gloria Vanderbilt is eating with her friend Carol Matthau. Other names appearing undisguised throughout the story include Cole Porter, who hits on an Italian server; Princess Margaret, who makes snide comments about “poufs;” and Joseph Kennedy, who jumps into bed with one of his daughter’s 18-year-old friends.

The characters of Gloria Vanderbilt and Carol Matthau are first encountered in the story. The two friends are gossiping about Princess Margaret and the rest of the royal family. An awkward moment ensues when Vanderbilt fails to recognize her first husband, who stops by her table to say hello. It is only when Carol reminds Gloria who he is that she recognizes him, makin her appear empty-headed and vain. The women brush the incident aside in “La Basque Côte,” but supposedly, when Gloria Vanderbilt read the real story she said, “the next time I see Truman Capote, I am going to spit in his face.”

Next up are Lee Radziwill and Jacqueline Kennedy, who get off easy in “La Côte Basque,” with Capote describing them as “a pair of Western geisha girls.” Capote, however, uses them as a way to discuss the next real scandal. Lady Coolbirth tells Jonesy a story of how she was raped as a teenager by Joe Kennedy. She goes on to tell Jonesy how she was a guest of Kennedy’s daughter Kick, and one night “the old bugger slipped into my bedroom… all those Kennedy men are all the same; they’re like dogs, they have to pee on every hydrant.” It is unclear whether or not this event actually occurred to Slim Keith or if it was just gossip embellished by Capote for his story.

The character of Ann Hopkins is then introduced to the story when she walks into the restaurant and sits down with a pastor. Ann Hopkins was a pseudonym for the real Ann Woodward, who was married to William Woodward Jr., heir to the Hanover National Bank fortune. Woodward Jr. had asked Ann for a divorce in 1947, but she refused, as she didn’t want to give up her wealth and social status.

In the fall of 1955, after a string of break-ins in the Woodwards’ neighborhood, Ann shot her husband twice after mistaking him for a burglar. This ultimately killed Woodward Jr. Although Ann Woodward was never indicted for murder, Capote publicly accuses the character Ann Hopkins of murder in “La Côte Basque.” Capote suggested that Ann planned the murder of Woodward Jr., but got away with it because Ann’s mother-in-law, Elsie Woodward (who, in Capote’s story, was named Hilda Hopkins) paid off the police to avoid a scandal.

Perhaps Truman’s biggest betrayal was that of Barbara “Babe” Paley, who had basically adopted Truman. In “La Côte Basque,” Truman told his readers a story that involved Babe Paley, her husband Bill Paley, and a mystery woman who is believed to be Mary Rockefeller. According to the story, Bill Paley (under the pseudonym Sidney Dillon) has a one-night stand with “the governor’s wife” (Mary Rockefeller) while Babe Paley (who is called Cleo in Capote’s story) is out of town. After they are finished, Bill Paley (Dillon) discovers a bloodstain on his bedsheets. Worried about his wife returning home at any moment, Bill Paley scrubs the sheets in the bathtub and attempts to dry them by baking them in the oven before replacing them on the bed.

Aftermath of “La Côte Basque”

On October 10, 1975, only a few days before the November edition of Esquire hit the newsstands, Ann Woodward was found dead from a suicide. Many people believe that she was sent an advance copy of Truman’s story, which pushed her over the edge.

When the issue was published, Truman Capote was able to get out of New York to film the movie Murder by Death. To New York’s upper echelon, however, this move to Los Angeles following the publication of “La Côte Basque” made Capote look like a coward.

While Capote was in LA, he called Slim Keith (Lady Ina Coolbrith in “La Côte Basque”), but Slim refused to take his call. Unable to accept Slim’s rejection, Capote sent her a cable in Australia at the end of the year where she was spending her holidays. The cable said “Merry Christmas, Big Mama. I’ve decided to forgive you. Love Truman.” However, Slim was far from forgiving toward Truman, going so far as to consult her lawyers about suing the writer for libel.

The Paleys never forgave Truman, either. Babe Paley had been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer when “La Côte Basque” was published. She would never talk to Truman Capote again, and passed away on July 6, 1978.

As for Capote, the publishing of “La Côte Basque 1975” coincided with the start of his fall from grace. He began to drink and use drugs quite heavily and lost all of his friends because of this story. Truman Capote died on August 25, 1984, and the rest of the manuscript for Answered Prayers has yet to be found.

Who is Larry Gagosian? The American ‘mega dealer’ who purchased the world’s most expensive 20th-century painting

The multi-millionaire businessman started his career by selling posters on the streets of Los Angeles 

By Dora Davies-Evitt

‘I am a very visual person, whether it’s a beautiful woman or a beautiful painting. I like the way things look’, are the words Larry Gasogian uses to describe his attraction to the business of buying and selling art. The world’s most prosperous dealer, whose billion-dollar empire spans 17 outposts in seven countries, was once described in a GQ interview as ‘the closest thing the art world has to a Caesar’. 

The ‘mega-dealer’ who owns the prolific chain of Gagosian galleries is now making headlines with his recent purchase of Andy Warhol’s Shot Sage Blue Marilyn, which has broken records to become the most expensive 20th-century artwork ever sold at auction. Initially priced ‘in the region’ of $200 million, Gagosian bought the piece for $170 million, rising to $195 million (approximately £158.17 million) after additional expenses were taken into account.

Gagosian – ‘the most important dealer in the world’ – has been at the forefront of the commercial art industry since the 1960s, representing and promoting a staggeringly impressive list of contemporary artists, including Cy Wombly, Roy Lichtenstein, Alberto Giacometti, Anselm Kiefer, Damien Hirst, Helen Frankenthaler and Zao Wou-Ki. He also manages the estates of some of the best painters in history, including Pablo Picasso, Warhol and William de Kooning.

Gagosian’s house, which he bought 11 years ago for $36.5 million (approximately £29.2 million) is a magnificent white-walled and glass structure designed by revered architect Charles Gwathmey. An artwork in itself, the building holds an astonishing personal collection of modern work, including a piece from Brice Marden’s Cold Mountain series, Picasso’s 1921 portrait of his first wife Olga, a vast painting from Wombly’s Bacchus series and a Jeff Koons glass sculpture, to name a few. 

The 77-year-old dealer started from humble beginnings, once renting out someone’s walk-in closet in Venice Beach for $20 a month and parking cars to pay his way. Gasogian did, in his opinion, ‘eliminate the pretensions of gentility’ that once characterised the art business in the 70s, by injecting a ‘rags to riches’ energy into a world saturated by old money and stuffy senior experts. Gagosian’s career, which he started by selling posters on the streets of Los Angeles, was fuelled by his savvy business mind and his keen eye for quality and real talent. When asked: ‘What does it take to make a great dealer?’ he replied, ‘passion, focus, hard work, and in terms of my profession, having a decent eye’. 

With an ultra-competitive disposition, Gagosian is often described as an ‘aggressive’ salesman; this he feels, according to an interview in the Financial Times, is an advantage to his profession. ‘I think if you are not aggressive in business, you will not go very far. It’s the only way I can function. Aggressive doesn’t mean you behave like a monster. It means you are an opportunist, forward-looking. Moving forward, moving forward – that’s my idea of aggressive’. Despite this, the American has a propensity to have fun, ‘You gotta have fun. Fun keeps the juices flowing. It’s just the way I’m wired’. 

A keen swimmer, tennis player and surfer, the art expert is also a self-proclaimed former hippie who ‘smoked pot and grew my hair out’. Friends with Warhol and the late Jean-Michel Basquiat, Gagosian was front and centre of the flourishing Pop Art and abstract movements that emerged in the 60s. Witnessing the glamour and excitement of ‘the factory’ years, the dealer once sold every one of Warhol’s ‘Piss Paintings’ at an exhibition in New York. He now holds company with Jenny Saville (who describes him as having ‘a certain melancholy, as well as incredible energy and a drive’), Hockney and Hirst, and recently helped Bob Dylan sell a large part of his personal collection.

To date, Gagosian employs more than 300 people and has 19 exhibition spaces across the United States, Europe, and Asia designed by acclaimed architects. As well as fostering the careers of some of today’s leading artists, the businessman has also been featured as a subject in several of their works. In 2013, Hockney painted Gagosian sitting on a chair in a suit and loafers as part of a series of 84 portraits. Basquiat, Nathaniel Mary Quinn and Elizabeth Peyton have also depicted his likeness. He reportedly sold the work done of him by Basquiat, much to his regret, once stating ‘can you believe how stupid I am?’, when the subject was broached by an enquiring journalist.

Historical Stiltsville  

There is a group of historical stilt houses located right in Biscayne Bay that date back to the 1930’s. The area is called Stiltsville, and the structures stand on wood or reinforced concrete piling, generally 10 feet above the shallow water, which could be one to three feet deep at low tide. And you can only get to there by boat which makes the location very mysterious and exclusive.
