CITY MAGAZINE Page One View in all it's glory at http://www.city-magazine.com/pageone/editions/2007/39/ September 2007 Vol. 3, Issue 39 High Steaks. NYC dining heavyweight Steve Hanson opens his latest Park Avenue establishment next week. Primehouse New York, an East-Coast sister to David Burke's Primehouse in Chicago, debuts October 1, with Burke-trained New Yorker Jason Miller wielding the cleaver. The 5,600-square-foot space, designed by Yabu Pushelberg, is a mod-inspired mix of stone, wood, and mirrors, each cut at razor-sharp angles. Aesthetics aside and on to the important stuff, Primehouse New York will serve USDA Prime cuts of Kentucky-bred Black Angus bulls, dry-aged on site in the restaurant's Himalayan rock salt-tiled aging room. Get your name on the list before reservations are rare. 381 Park Ave. South (at 27th St.), New York. Go to www.brguestrestaurants.com. -- Tired of bad white wine at a not-much-better art gallery opening? The House of Campari's 'Distinctive Messengers' exhibit, open now through Oct. 7 in New York's SoHo district, promises sophisticated cocktails and top-notch contemporary work from two dozen local artists. Nearly every visual medium is represented in the collection, with each artist currently (or soon to be) also on exhibit at a gallery elsewhere in the city—so consider this a primer to the cream of the emerging New York crop. The Campari cocktail lineup is equally strong: Try the new signature La Stella Grande or the classic Negroni. The gallery is open Tuesday through Sunday, 12–8 p.m., but sign up for their invite list for access to special events like tonight's Johnathan Rice show, Perpetual Art Machine on Oct. 2, or the special burlesque showcase on Oct. 4. Go to www.houseofcampari.com for more information. 489 Broome Street, New York. -- CITY's New Fall Fashion Issue How much would you pay for a platinum human skull studded with 8,601 diamonds? How's a cool $100 million sound? That's what an investment group just spent on Damien Hirst's For the Love of God, his ultra-luxe skull, which appears on the cover of special editions of CITY's new fall fashion issue. Inside a special 'Art Meets Fashion' section in the issue, famed photographer Sante D'Orazio pays Hirst a visit and ruminates on the artist's most recent jaw-dropping work. Elsewhere, Zac Posen talks with former Interview editor Bob Colacello about his new book, Bob Colacello: Out; Andy Spade visits artist Jules de Balincourt in his Brooklyn studio; Cynthia Rowley chats with artist Delia Brown over drinks at the Soho House; Kara Walker prepares for her big show at the Whitney; and Terry Richardson remembers sharing a tiny East Village with his late father and fellow photographer Bob Richardson. CITY's 50th issue is also jam-packed with the hottest fall fashion, a look at the 'Happy Mealing' of 7th Avenue by GQ Style Guy Glenn O'Brien, and a photo portfolio of the 'unsung heroes' of the New York fashion industry.
