In their respective home bases of Berlin and New York, DJs Nicolas Endlicher and Memphy rule the night.

Harlem native burst onto the local techno scene when she was still a teenager. She’s since DJ’ed among the likes of Madonna and Beyoncé, while maintaining a high-profile modeling career and cementing herself as the rare It-girl who straddles the Brooklyn and downtown Manhattan crowds. , who DJs under the moniker MCML###V, co-founded the cult party line and collective .official (think sweat, s*x, and hard techno) in 2016 with his friend Cem Dukkha, with which he’s toured the electronic music world’s most hallowed venues. Ahead of Herrensauna’s XXL Berlin Pride takeover tomorrow—where Memphy will DJ alongside the likes of X3Butterfly, Slim Soledad, vtss, and Word of Command—the pair sat down to talk about the pressure to produce, pre-party rituals, and their nightlife origin stories.

Nightlife and wellness are not an obvious match, but Papi Juice co-founder Oscar Nñ knows better than most that self-care is an undervalued element in a DJ’s lifestyle.

Since launching the q***r, POC-centered collective with friends Mohammed Fayaz and Adam R. in 2011, Nñ has played hundreds of parties. This summer, he’s keeping just as busy, serving on the host committee for Warm Up at , throwing a barbeque at , and headlining the festival on Fire Island this weekend. CULTURED caught up with the nightlife savant between sets to discuss healthcare, haircuts, and scents in the club.

Peter Marino, guest editor of CULTURED’s second Hamptons issue of the season, is an unforgettable figure out East, where his signature leather garb is a breath of fresh air among the Ralph Lauren set.

On the East End, where he and his family have kept a weekend house since the mid-1990s, the indomitable architect lets his softer side out to play. He spends his afternoons playing tennis, visiting the local animal shelter, and tending to his flourishing garden. He’s a pillar of the local scene and an indefatigable supporter of its artistic community, made clear the eponymous foundation he opened in Southampton three years ago. That’s why CULTURED’s Editor-in-Chief tapped Marino, who previously covered CULTURED’s September/October 2014 issue, to guest edit our second Hamptons edition, an insider’s look at a cross-section of creatives who are leaving their mark on the sociocultural landscape of the East End.

“The life of a weekly and daily critic is a tunnel life. I am not part of the social world. I only go to shows, take walks, and write,” Jerry Saltz tells CULTURED in our inaugural Aspen edition.

The art-world gadfly and Pulitzer Prize-winning critic sat down with Editor-in-Chief ahead of their Summer Series conversation at today. From his current reading list (think heavy and Russian) to his ideal hiking partner, Saltz dishes on the rituals and predilections that rhythm his life at home in New York and on the go.

“Lucien doesn’t have Resy. It hardly even has a website. The cuisine, too, is decidedly old school, and the menu rarely changes. No one has a problem with this,” write Nate Freeman and Benjamin Godsill in CULTURED’s inaugural Art and Food issue.

The ’Nota Bene’ co-hosts spoke with a few of the masterminds behind eateries that loom especially large in the art world. Founded in 1998 by Lucien Bahaj, the East Village’s Lucien immediately became a beacon for artists, from Richard Prince to Ai Weiwei, whose photographs now punctuate the bistro’s walls. Today, walk in for an early drink, and you might see Sarah Morris, Sam McKinniss, or Performa founder RoseLee Goldberg, who commandeers the booth by the window every time. There’s a reason everyone keeps coming back to Lucien, now run by Bahaj’s son Zac, even after dalliances with other establishments: It knows that there’s nothing wrong with keeping it classic.

Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo have catered hundreds of gallery dinners and galas, becoming a culinary pillar in the Los Angeles art world.

Their big break into the industry was thanks to a few fortuitous connections—from the late and legendary art dealer Earl McGrath to top collectors Benedikt and Lauren Taschen. In a conversation with Nate Freeman and Benjamin Godsill for CULTURED’s Summer issue, the restaurateurs behind and ’s unpack the cross-pollinating art and food scenes in LA, their experiences cooking for everyone from Wolfgang Puck to Diplo, and how they deal with exposure.

The Odeon, like New York itself, is forever.

For CULTURED’s inaugural Art and Food issue, ‘Nota Bene’ co-hosts Nate Freeman and Benjamin Godsill spoke with a few of the masterminds behind eateries that loom especially large in the art world. First up, the Odeon, which took up residence in Tribeca’s Towers Cafeteria space in 1980 and quickly became a hub for the first-name set (Iman, Andy, Jean-Michel, etc.) and downtown mainstays like Lawrence Weiner, Julian Schnabel, and Richard Serra. Over 40 years later, the fervor for the restaurant has only amplified: It’s hard to get from your table to the bathroom without being waylaid to discuss the latest market gossip or kvetch about the price of hotels in Basel.

Where does the art world eat?

In CULTURED’s inaugural Art and Food issue, ‘Nota Bene’ co-hosts and notorious gourmand-gossips Nate Freeman and Benjamin Godsill share an insider’s list of spots the often hermetic and idiosyncratic industry haunts. These include relative newcomers to the restaurant landscape, eateries that have been adopted by art-world denizens over the last two decades. From the Iwan and Manuela Wirth-backed Audley Public House in London to Mexico City’s Contramar, these joints have already witnessed their fair share of market debriefs, insider exchanges, and spicy gossip. They’re the next generation of art-world restaurants, and they’re here to stay.

When art-world It-Boys Nate Freeman and Benjamin Godsill started the podcast ‘Nota Bene’ in 2021, they didn’t realize that so much of the industry’s chatter would actually be about lunch.

“This checks out,” they write in CULTURED’s Art and Food issue. “Where the art world eats isn’t just a part of the narrative, it is the narrative. The 600-person fundraising luncheons, gala dinners, billionaire breakfast meetings, post-opening cocktail buyouts—you can’t talk about artists and their dealers without talking about where they break bread.” Over the years, the co-hosts have had their fair share of martinis and sashimi on the roving art-world circuit. So for the issue, we asked them to share their ultimate insider’s list of the establishments—from the down-and-dirty to the white-glove—that feed the art world.

Martha Stewart really needs no introduction.

For CULTURED’s Art and Food issue, the patron saint of good living sat down with Design Editor-at-Large, . When they spoke, the 82-year-old media mogul and doyenne of all things domestic was sitting outside her Bedford estate in a parked Polaris. It was barely past 12 pm, and she had already tended to her farm, taken several appointments, moved some furniture, done Pilates, and delivered bagels to either her team or her animals (it’s unclear whom she means by her “gang”). As she prepares to release her hundredth book this year, Stewart found a rare moment in her exceedingly packed schedule to chat about the current “Martha-ssance,” why she doesn’t DM, and the secret behind her famous dinner parties—all while attempting to take a photograph of a chipmunk in her garden.

For CULTURED’s Art and Food issue, Ocean Vuong unveils his growing photography practice with an intimate photo essay.

In the featured images, shot 15 years apart, Vuong weaves a tale of two Julys: the first reveling in the quotidian beauty of his late mother Rose’s Hartford nail salon, the second chronicling a string of humid New England days spent with his brother 15 years later, mourning her death. The early days of the summer month are complex for Vietnamese refugees like those in Vuong’s family tree, who arrived stateside after surviving America’s decades of warmongering in Southeast Asia. It’s also a period, he notes, where service workers in salons and elsewhere trade the holiday celebrations for high-demand seasonal work. “This tension, I feel, is inherent in the American project as a whole,” says Vuong, “that even rest and recreation to crown the nation’s independence is dependent on labor and loss.”

“Our place out East is the one constant we can’t live without. It’s the center of our family,” Athena Calderone tells CULTURED in our first Hamptons issue of the season.

The interior designer, lifestyle influencer, cooking guru, book author, and serial revamper of residences is deep in the throes of an ambitious project—a year-long remodeling job of her new home in Tribeca—but Calderone admits she’s still hopelessly in love with the Amagansett home she purchased 16 years ago. Not that she always saw it with rose-colored glasses. When she and her husband, the music producer and DJ Victor Calderone went to the initial viewing, she says, “There was mold everywhere. It was like the house was actually sweating. We saw a dead deer in the pool, and there were tapestry-like curtains and s**g rugs.” Yet she saw potential in the wreckage. “You couldn’t deny the beauty of the architecture.” She immediately got to work with her new neighbor, Paul Masi of Bates Masi Architects, on renovating the home with an eye to preserving its cozier elements. “Essentially, I was channeling what I love about the Hamptons, the informality of it all,” Calderone remembers in the issue.

At the link in bio, she reveals how she transformed her Hamptons hideaway from “trapped in time” to “tried-and-true.”

Dogs have a long history as an artist’s best friend: Consider William Wegman’s Weimaraners, Lucian Freud’s whippets, or Georgia O’Keeffe’s chows.⁠

“Dog Days of Summer,” a new group show at pays tribute to this lasting connection, bringing together works by dozens of artists—from Kiki Smith to Robert Mapplethorpe—depicting our furry friends as ever-faithful companions, studio mates, and muses. (Dogs are welcome at the gallery, and treats will be handed out at the reception desk.) ⁠

To celebrate the paws-itively life-a-fur-ming power of dogs in art, CULTURED compiled exclusive shots of some of the artists participating in the exhibition, posing with their own very good boys and girls. Link in bio to read more about the show.⁠

Tyler Mitchell has traveled the world with his photography career. This summer, he’s bringing it back home to Atlanta.

The Georgia native made headlines just a year out of NYU when he became the first Black photographer to shoot the cover of ‘Vogue,’ with Beyoncé as his subject. Since then there have been campaigns for Loewe and Louis Vuitton, a piece acquired by the Smithsonian, and a debut monograph that made waves around the world. Mitchell is a go-to in the commercial realm and a rising voice in the fine art sphere, but won’t quite commit to either. “Photography as a medium almost wants to be everything and everywhere, and in our time, it is!” he tells CULTURED. Within his laundry list of accomplishments, he has investigated masculinity, Black kinship, domesticity, and our perception of the American South. “I’ve depicted Black families in bucolic, sublime, and sometimes unusual landscapes,” he says, “to reflect the diverse environments where Black life has flourished.” This summer, the full breadth of the image-maker’s practice will be front and center in his most significant institutional presentation to date. On view at the through December, “Idyllic Space” brings together over 30 photographic works, evidence of the artist’s forays into fashion, and a new sculptural piece that harkens back to his upbringing in Atlanta.

At the link in bio, Mitchell tells CULTURED the story behind a selection of the works on view—and what’s motivated him throughout the years.

20/06/2024

“I get worried sometimes that people think the taste of tequila is one that some celebrity endorses,” David R. Carballido, co-founder of LALO tells CULTURED.

Unlike those brands, Carballido and Lalo González have turned down celebrity affiliations, declined to produce novelty nightclub bottles accompanied by sparklers, and stuck to promoting a single hero product: tequila blanco. Their Guadalajara-born, Austin-based brand began in 2017 as a small-batch project concocted by two childhood friends. Seven years later, they’ve turned LALO into a staple for a generation of tastemakers around the world—popping up at the Whitney Museum, SXSW, and the Contemporary Austin—while keeping an eye on the pulse of their native country of Mexico. Their “See New” campaign, shot by Santiago Sierra Soler and Memo Matthews, crystallizes this urge, tapping a cadre of local creatives to offer a snapshot of a culture in flux. “The misconception in the world about Mexico is because of what you have seen in the movies about what Mexico is,” González says. “That’s what we’re trying to do in LALO: be a portal to the Mexico that we experience and the Mexico we want the world to see.” 

As they expand into international markets with their honest recipe (fully mature Highland agave, champagne yeast, and well water, twice distilled), CULTURED caught up with González and Carballido to take note of how far they’ve come—and why they’ve dedicated their lives to championing Mexico.

Everyone has preconceived notions about Julian Schnabel. 

He has lived many lives since his rise in the New York art scene in the 1980s with the reputation of an artist bad boy. In the nearly five decades since, Schnabel has painted a stream of masterworks on velvet and tarp—all while honing an illustrious film career. In the art world, he injected a dose of frenetic maximalism into a minimalism-saturated milieu. In Hollywood, he’s told the stories of tragic geniuses like Jean-Michel Basquiat and Cuban writer Reinaldo Arenas. Beneath all of it lies a relentless drive to create. This summer, the artist is giving audiences the most intimate perspective yet into this mythical practice with a one-of-a-kind show at . Schnabel looked to his own collection to curate a unique selection of drawings, paintings, and sculptures that speaks to a contemplative moment in his career. In the cover story for CULTURED’s first Hamptons edition of the season, the artist opened up his Montauk home studio and Manhattan solar system to give writer Jacoba Urist an exclusive peek into where his head—and heart—are at right now.

This summer, the Hamptons will have the chance to see Julian Schnabel at his most personal.

The illustrious artist—and the cover star of CULTURED’s first Hamptons edition of the season—is a cultural fixture out East. He spends summers in a Montauk hideaway with his family, in the studio, and between the waves. Schnabel sees a connection between surfing and painting—both transcend the mundanity of time. In August, he’s bringing that meditative energy to where he will present an intimate selection of artwork from his own collection. It’s a homecoming of sorts—Schnabel had a solo show at the East Hampton space back in 1998—and part of a greater reflection on the evolution of his oeuvre and personal life. “I’ve had moments where my life was a mess,” he tells Jacoba Urist in the cover feature. “But paddle out somewhere, drop in on some giant wave and make it, and you don’t care. You’ve had a reprieve just being out there in the water. Painting is like that. It has to do with freedom, really.”

Legacy is loaded with both responsibility and potential.

As —niece of theater icon Lorraine Hansberry—notes, “Legacy, especially for Black Americans, is critical for the generations beyond us to know that they too can achieve whatever they want and to never forget what we have been through as a people.” Though the U.S. Federal Government declared Juneteenth a federal holiday in 2021, it has long been an occasion for Black families to pay homage to those who came before them. To mark the occasion, CULTURED Contributing Editor Dominique Clayton spoke to four descendants of prominent Black cultural figures to discuss their elders’ contributions to American society and what charting their own paths looks like.

“As a kid, music was the only thing that was talking to me … It still saves my life to this day,” 070 Shake tells writer J Wortham in her CULTURED cover story.

The 27-year-old musician is just a few months shy of releasing her third album, ‘Petrichor.’ With it, Shake is looking to establish a more unfiltered connection with her listeners, driven by a more stripped-down sound in the studio and an unclouded lens that has its roots in something greater than herself. “Being in touch with God from a young age made me a deeper feeler,” she says, referencing her religious upbringing and a pastor uncle who produced worship songs for a church. “Those moments gave me a more grounded perspective. I can see things from a bird’s-eye view.” For the new album, Shake marries that zoomed-out frame of mind with a surgical precision—a winning recipe for the haunting voice of a lovesick generation.

“Everyone else is oversharing,” says CULTURED cover star 070 Shake in the inaugural Art and Food issue. 

The notoriously mysterious musician has insulated herself from the noise to produce her third album, ‘Petrichor,’ due this fall. Despite her youth, she avoids social media as much as she can, revealing little about her personal life save for the occasional homage to her partner, actor . “I don’t feel like I’m supposed to share my life with the world in that way,” she tells in her cover feature. That effort at self-preservation, and a move to Los Angeles’s greener pastures, have allowed the New Jersey native to “see the world for what it is” and pen her most stripped-down body of work yet.

Everyone’s thirsty for 070 Shake.

The New Jersey native—and CULTURED’s second cover star for the inaugural Art and Food issue—broke onto the music scene in the mid-2010s with a wishlist of bonafides: a contract with kingmaking label G.O.O.D. Music, a debut EP with cult currency, and features with the likes of Nas, Kanye West, and Pusha T. In 2020, her first album, ‘Modus Vivendi,’ crystallized her status as a voice for a lost, lovesick generation perpetually “in their feelings.” But throughout Shake’s rise, the artist herself has remained a mystery, her face often hidden by her hair, her vocals digitally obfuscated, her public appearances sporadic. As she prepares to release her third LP this fall, the star is nowhere close to lifting the curtain on her persona, but she is ready to be heard more clearly. ‘Petrichor’ promises to be her most unfiltered and stripped-down body of work yet—an ode to what happens after the rain.

We’re used to seeing CULTURED cover star Willem Dafoe’s face blown up 90 feet wide at the movies. 

Marina Abramović looms just as large in the art historical canon for confrontational performances as daring and indelible as those of her Hollywood counterpart. But the two know one another on a much more intimate scale: Abramović first encountered Dafoe through his performances at the theater below her Manhattan apartment. These days, the pair cross paths when they can—swapping dirty jokes and catching one another’s shows and premieres in cities across the world. CULTURED sat in on their latest tête-à-tête for Dafoe’s cover story, and the resulting conversation is a madcap meander through the icons’ indelible bond, their relationship to work, and what pushing the bounds of performance looks like. Abramović even cracks her latest off-color joke.
