In celebration of the opening, an influential mix toasted LALO tequila cocktails and listened to the duo discuss the inspiration behind the collaboration and their journeys as creatives. Damian Lewis, David Broza, Laura Prepon, Karen Elson, Derek Blasberg, and Kate Lanphear stood amongst the notables.
Mosshart added, “My 8-year-old niece Goldy appears in this show a lot. I’m obsessed with her; her photos hang all over my studio. I’m surrounded by this young, wild, fearless person who has no interest in being anything but herself, at the loudest volume, at the fastest speed, without an ounce of concession. She falls in love with something new every 10 minutes. Such a wonderful thing to do. To me, she represents primal instinct, living, breathing art. She didn’t seem the least bit surprised when I told her she was in a lot of my new paintings. She was like, ‘Duh. Wish I could come to New York.’”
NO SLOW SONGS will be open to the public from March 28 through April 17 at the Nili Lotan men’s flagship store. 183 Duane Street, NY.
