As tourists on Rodeo Drive crowded the storefront of the women’s Louis Vuitton store hoping for a glimpse of stars like Miranda Kerr and Billie Lourd who were brunching inside, private town cars — which likely tipped off said looky-loos — whisked media and influencers away to a private preview of the French design house’s just-opened Crafting Dreams exhibition.
Held at a private Bel-Air residence from now through May 3, the artful, immersive showcase takes place inside an architecturally stunning modern-contemporary three-story home, which features breathtaking views of the city as well as alfresco glimpses of Jennifer Aniston and The Weeknd’s backyards. (The latter tidbit was according to a champagne-sipping influencer; so take it with a grain of Louis Vuitton-branded salt since details about the home and its owner were unavailable.)
But most importantly — to fashion and interior design enthusiasts at least — the brand’s most exclusive and bespoke offerings...

Anthony McCarten’s The Collaboration (currently on Broadway at the Manhattan Theatre Club) with Jeremy Pope as Jean-Michel Basquiat and Paul Bettany as Andy Warhol, directed by Kwame Kwei-Armah takes liberties with time while Sara Driver’s inspiring Boom For Real: The Late Teenage Years Of Jean-Michel Basquiat (2018) captures the artist and the scene around him through on-camera interviews with Jim Jarmusch, Carlo McCormick, Fred Brathwaite (aka Fab 5 Freddy), Sur Rodney (Sur), Glenn O’Brien, Kenny Scharf, Lee Quiñones, Patricia Field, Jamie Nares, Lucy Sante, Al Diaz, Michael Holman, Jennifer Jazz, Coleen Fitzgibbon, Mary-Ann Monforton, Bud Kliment, Felice Rosser, and Alexis Adler, who says “If we don't tell the history, then others will, who weren't there and don't know the truth.

New York is a one in a million type city. A melding of nationalities, races, religions, sexual orientations, New York City is the rare city that is both shockingly intimidating and yet singularly alluring and inviting. However, even it has seen a dramatic change in the face of rampant gentrification, leading to many lifelong New Yorkers to reminisce about a New York they now don’t recognize.
And the cinema surrounding New York City is showing this evolution as it seems to happen. Just a few weeks ago, Fredrick Wiseman’s In Jackson Heights delved deep into the titular neighborhood in the legendary city, a neighborhood that is as diverse as they come, yet is pushing people further and further away with oncoming gentrification. Now, thanks to Oscilloscope Laboratories, one of the great documents of the rough New York people lament about having lost is finally available in a new limited edition DVD box set.

In a world a long, long ago, there was Wild Style, the film that can be legitimately called the first hip-hop film ever made.The low budget musical docu-drama, directed by Charlie Ahearn, revolves around the life of a New York City graffiti artist, played by real-life graffiti artist Lee Quinones, as he deals with his life, his work and his relationship with a fellow artist Rose (Sandra Fabara). It features performances by hip-hop luminaries of the day like Grandmaster Flash, Fab Five Freddy, Rock Steady Crew and Cold Crush Brothers, and can rightly claim to be one of the very few films ever made that had a ground-breaking cultural impact.The film’s success led to...

No history of hip-hop is complete without mention of Wild Style, which marks its 30th Anniversary via a two-disc deluxe DVD release from Music Box Films. The film combines break dancing, the tagging of Lee Quinones, and the musical exploits of Grandmaster Flash, Fab Five Freddy, Rock Steady Crew and the Cold Crush Brothers. Besides a complete remastering, the set is packed with extras, as well as a 48-page booklet written by director Charlie Ahearn. [Editor's note: the audio commentary by Ahearn and Fab Five Freddy is enlightening and essential.]Because this film is so important, the challenge will be more difficult than usual.Shoot me a short (1-2 minute tops but no minimum length) hip hop vid explaining why you deserve a copy of this monumental movie. 1....

“Here it is,” Patti Astor shrieks. “Here’s my little gallery!” Astor is standing outside a tiny basement storefront at 225 East 11th Street in New York City's East Village, where she and partner Bill Stelling opened the original Fun Gallery in 1981. That was the year after she starred in Eric Mitchell’s landmark low-budget flick Underground U.S.A. and a couple years before her turn as a reporter in Wild Style, Charlie Ahearn’s celebration of early B-boy culture that features the graffiti artists Lee Quinones and Lady Pink Fabara, as well as hip-hop pioneer Fab 5 Freddy, Astor's then-boyfriend and a future host of Yo! MTV Raps.If you've never heard of Patti Astor, it may be because she’s one of those people who should take credit for things but doesn’t. Back in the day, she was more interested in making sure the young artists she championed — graffiti masters like Dondi,...

At a moment when documentaries often feel compelled to blur the reality/fiction border for the sake of entertainment, something refreshing can be found in the inverse: a narrative feature that inadvertently lapses into a de facto doc. Such is true of Wild Style, Charlie Ahearn's 30-year-old time capsule of the hip-hop community in the early '80s Bronx. Zoro (Lee Quinones) is a young graffiti artist who's constantly at work tagging his environs; he's kept busy by avoiding cops, trying to win back his ex (Sandra Fabara) from a rival artist, and organizing a hip-hop concert. Plenty of significant themes are explored—the act of making graffiti as a reclamation of one's space, the co-opting of countercultural work by mainstream taste (in one memorable sequence, Zoro is brought ...

“Downtown 81 represents Manhattan’s last stand as a beatnik haven for creatively driven impoverished artists, a moment where everyone was connected in one giant electrical circuit creating their own cultural power.”
Downtown 81, featuring a nineteen year old Jean-Michel Basquiat, captured the movers and shakers from the no wave, hip-hop, graffiti, and alternative fashion scenes, as they collided down in the depths of New York’s lower east side. Originally shot by director Edo Bertoglio in the winter of 1980-81, it remained unreleased for nearly twenty years before being re-assembled in 1999 by co-producer Maripol Fauque (a Polaroid photographer and fashion designer, behind the iconic look for Madonna on the cover of Like a Virgin). Basquiat first acquired notoriety in the early eighties New York art scene with his ‘Samo’ graffiti slogans, which caught the attention of TV Party host Glenn O’Brien. After Basquiat appeared as a guest on...
