STEVE DIBENEDETTO @ GROUPE 16SUR20
Continuing our tradition of showing off exciting artist exhibitions amid menswear, we bring you our latest showing: Steve Dibenedetto. Fresh from his group show at the Whitney, Dibenedetto is one of our favorite artists to be showcased at Groupe16sur20 in quite some time. His work, with its thick webs of paint, "disturbs as much as it enchants", giving the eye something more than its usual fare. We shouldnt' say this, but this display is so fascinating, you could almost forget you're standing in a clothing store. But that is off the record.

SAYING GOODBYE IS NEVER EASY
In honor of our beloved Aston Martin 1983 Lagonda, we'd just like to say... we'll miss you! The scheduled departure is for Monday October 22nd, so you still have time to come ogle the Lagonda over the weekend.
If you're not familiar with the Aston Martin Lagonda, Tom Evans has written a brief history:
"Aston Martin was about to go bust – again - in the 1970s and they needed a new car pronto to shore up their finances. In just seven months designer William Towns took the car from a back of the envelope sketch to finished prototype. The car he came up with was a 4-door limousine, the Lagonda, which made a smash appearance at the 1976 Earl’s Court motor show. The looks still greatly divide opinion and you either love it or you hate it, but we should perhaps be grateful that the 250 deposits taken for the car then helped save the firm. When the car turned up two years later it was woefully unreliable and came with suitably 1970s space-age LED electronic instruments, which worked about as well as you might expect: very badly. The rest of the car was little better; the aristocratic owners of the first production model had to be followed around by a low-loader in case it broke down, so common was this occurrence".
