IT'S ALWAYS GRAY IN NEW YORK







went to moto late last night, and the people playing were a bit annoying. it turned from hard bop style jazz to a pile of dog shit in seconds. i had a nice guinness from the draft and some good cheese. today i ate lunch with miss diamond at pastis. the food, as always, was excellent, but couldn't believe how busy they were for lunch. It must be tourist season again. we had the good fortune of having a private showing of the entire collection at the gagosion gallery on 24th st. my favorite piece was by damien hirst. it was a large circular piece that looked like a spin painting with a hidden skull in the middle.i also liked one warhols "abstract" pieces that was a brightly colored camouflage screenprint. in general, the collection was excellent, and it was quite a privilege to be able to see pieces that no one else gets to see from such a great gallery. walked around chelsea for a while. now i feel so hazy after just waking up from an early evening nap. it looks like it might rain.
