GAYLETTER

We’ve been fans of the artist Richard Haines’ work way before he got famous in the fashion industry — Seriously, he’s been on our radar long before he started drawing for the New York Times’ T magazine, and collaborating on T-shirts with Prada. We even posed naked for him because we liked his drawings that much (hopefully we can find that drawing and we can get it as a gift for Christmas). We both have artwork by him on our walls, Richard has been a great supporter of our newsletter, he even covered one of our newsletters (letter No.115) with illustrations (I am so gonna print that newsletter and frame it now that I think of it!).

We did a feature in our printed publication (GAYLETTER Issue 2) about his process and more specifically about drawing naked Brooklyn boys. Basically I don’t need to read a press release about this new show to recommend it.

The show is titled ‘A Room of One’s Own’ and it’s opening on September 10th at 6:00PM at Daniel Cooney Fine Art gallery in Chelsea. I can assure you the it’s gonna be filled with boys he’s drawn, fashion kids, friendly faces and lots of great art on the walls.

Here’s a preview of the show:

FREE, 6:00PM-8:00PM, Daniel Cooney Fine Art, 508-526 West 26th St. #9C, NY, NY.
