Hank Willis Thomas: Pitch Blackness
The issue of race is not black and white. And what isn’t grey is the fact that this fictitious idea of “race” has throughout history picked at the color spectrum in order to ‘extric-hate’. If one...
Katya Leonovich: The Night of Shooting Stars and Seeing Small.
The impulsive exploratory instinct constantly churning within us was turned on high at the L Gallery retrospective of Katya Leonovich’s work. The trick of the Christopher Columbus expedition of last Tuesday, however, was not to find the New World,...
Fixx makes it to Scope.
SCOPE, for the most part, has always been the minor league to the Armory Show’s majors. You go, you have a good time, and there’s usually a few good players, but there’s isn’t a lot of Derek Jeters. Not...
Okay, so we went to the Oscars too…hanging out with the Hot Chocolate Oscar gang.
What do you get when you combine a sweet tooth, a fascination for Hollywood stardom and the mink coats that come with them? A night out with America and the Hollywood dream.
This Sunday night saw us join the rest...
Fashion Week- Celebrity, the Fame game and Trying to hold onto it at any Cost.
We here at SCV have been quite intrigued by the degree of deference given to celebrities, their handlers, and the overzealous camera crews rushing to project them to your television screen. Curious to see how the celebrity gambit had...
How to affect Nonchalance: A Night out with Kithe Brewster and his Celebrity Friends.
To my left is Lil Kim, behind her Marc Jacobs, Moby, Lynn Whitfield and in between us and them are the ‘zingatini’s,’ the gestures, poses, and wondrous thoughts that make a kindred enclave (Casa La Femme- at 140 Charles...
Who Wants some Koch?
New York’s Wonder Twins, the Koch brothers have activated their powers yet again and have assumed the form of a whale on 88 10th avenue. Swallowing up Gotham’s beautiful girls and wooden boys for a Tuesday night dinner in...
Patricia Fields celebrates her Birthday, and they all came, including the Geisha Girls.
What do you do when you run into people dressed as pink polar bears, swig vodka tequila make up and are crushed by the NY Post paparazzi and their elk? Easy, you get in line, pucker up your lips...
A Fashion show, or something like it: Finnish Designer Paola Suhonen begins a Chic Experiment.
Last Thursday, I showed up at Bond Street’s Moeller Snow Gallery expecting a traditional fashion show. But considering Scallywag’s last experience at this particular location involved critiquing Jani Leinonen’s cereal-box paintings which, in case you forgot, depict such scenes...
Haute HIPPIE COUTURE.
The penthouse is packed, the event is catered, and the tequila is spiced with jalapeños. I’m at the Haute Hippie show and cramped elevators aside, someone’s doing something right. Beauties standing on bleacher-like rises wearing shimmering baby doll dresses...
Hard Times.
Last Thursday the Chelsea Art Museum Young Associates and guests put on their slickest suits and dreamiest dresses to attend the Winter Wickedness party. As most of us on planet Earth have been informed, either by the transcendent power...
Sony goes Glamorous on Us. A Night out at the Flagship store.
There’s an adage that goes something like this; ‘You know you are at a celebrity party when the mini burgers being passed around are eaten whole except for the buns themselves.’ In so many ways Mickey Boardman’s PAPER Magazine...
After Uber Party at Tribeca Grand. If only Ruven turned up.
I’ve always held the greatest respect for artists who shun their own after parties. Be it because of desire to mitigate unwarranted press or simply to get back to work (at least we like to believe so…). In this...
Sub-boutique. A walk on the ‘avante garde’ side.
Tuesday night saw us trollop all the way to Long Island City’s Foundry for an intriguing display of cutting edge fashion, indie spirit and a throwback to retro. There were some real winners and some also can too’s. Paying...

Paparazzo Fixx on another assignment, we wonder whose more glamarous?-Scallywag.
White, like an ash-covered inhabitant of Pompeii from the 1st century, lava pouring out of her delicate skull and moving down the back, she’s leaning over a...
