ROTHKO AND THE FOUR SEASONS: THOSE SONS OF BITCHES Rothko and The Four Seasons: Those Sons of Bitches. The Four Seasons Restaurant is one of the swankiest places to have a meal in New York- so swanky that Mark Rothko decided he didn’t want his paintings hung there. Rothko’s Seagram Murals were commissioned by the Mies van der Rohe and Philip Johnson designed restaurant before it opened in 1959. DALI AT THE ST. REGIS The St. Regis Hotel is in my opinion, the most opulent and grand hotel in New York. I love it. I also love that every fall and winter in the 1960s and 70s, Salvador Dali, his wife Gala and their pet ocelot (of course he had a dwarf leopard) lived at the St. Regis, where they’d have fabulous parties with New York’s arty best.The beautiful Beaux-Arts hotel was opened in 1904 by John Jacob JEAN DUBUFFET’S GROUP OF FOUR TREES SCULPTURE In 1969, David Rockefeller commissioned Jean Dubuffet to create a sculpture to be placed in front of the Chase Manhattan Building . The sculpture, Group of Four Trees, towers above the visitor in varying heights, in Dubuffet’s signature loopy, childlike style. It feels as if you are almost walking into a children’s coloring book, with LOUISE NEVELSON PLAZA Louise Nevelson Plaza. Russian born Louise Nevelson began her shallow relief sculptures in the 1930s. She moved from studying in New York to Munich to assist Diego Rivera, causing a huge rift between the artist and his wife Frida Kahlo, being one of his many mistresses. She then returned to New York during the depression to teach art on the MAXFIELD PARRISH’S PAINTED FART- AND THE BLOODY MARY Maxfield Parrish’s Painted Fart- and the Bloody Mary. The fantastical Gold Age-illustrated world of Maxfield Parrish lives forever at one of New York’s ritziest bars, the King Cole at the St. Regis Hotel.

Painted in 1989 just nine months HEAVEN IN AN ELEVATOR The Standard, High Line is a design feat itself.The opulent glass structure sits on the edge of the Hudson, atop the Highline Park in the Meat Packing District, providing gorgeous river views from each room, and sometimes sassy room views from the street- from those guests who don’t wish to draw their curtains when getting “cozy.

JEAN DUBUFFET’S GROUP OF FOUR TREES SCULPTURE In 1969, David Rockefeller commissioned Jean Dubuffet to create a sculpture to be placed in front of the Chase Manhattan Building . The sculpture, Group of Four Trees, towers above the visitor in varying heights, in Dubuffet’s signature loopy, childlike style.

The history of Minetta Tavern goes back to Prohibition when it was known as The Black Rabbit until 1929 and run by Eve Adams who would also open Eve’s Hangout at 129 Macdougal street (now La Lanterrna Caffe). In 1937 it opened as Minetta Tavern and counted some of it’s earliest customers, E.E. Cummings, Ezra Pound and Ernest Hemingway. KEITH HARING’S BATHROOM One of Keith Haring’s final goodbyes to New York before AIDS took him from this world in 1990 was perhaps one of his most personal, portraying the artist’s celebration of sexual freedom and an explicit and energetic commemoration of the 20 th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots.

DAY’S END BY GORDON MATTA-CLARK In 1975, as a monument to Chelsea’s long Industrial Age, Gordon Matta-Clark went to work on Pier 52. Slicing channels in the pier’s floors and ceiling, and cat eye shapes in the tin walls facing New Jersey, Matta-Clark turned the warehouse into a cathedral which he called “Day’s End”.

CEDAR TAVERN
Cedar Tavern was a booze-fueled Abstract Expressionist think tank.

The creative and volatile crowd would drinkthemselves
