Indochine
The restaurant Indochine has gone from trendsetting pioneer in the mid-1980s to established scene-maker in the 1990s, to the iconic status it holds today. With spectacular images presented by some of the most renowned photographers, celebrities, and writers, Indochine celebrates twenty-five years of being an important legacy in New York’s downtown social swirl, where celebrities rub elbows with downtown hipsters, uptown moguls mix with East Village club kids, and fashion designers with artists and gallery owners. Vintage photographs from the 1980s and ’90s are mixed with contemporary collages and Polaroids taken during Indochine’s most notorious private parties. Stories by Salman Rushdie, Moby, Julianne Moore, and Bob Colacello are combined with photographs by Patrick McMullan, Roxanne Lowit, and Patrick Demarchelier, along with artworks by Francesco Clemente, Helmut Lang, Tom Sachs, Ruben Toledo, Narciso Rodriguez, Ross Bleckner, and Julian Schnabel, among many more.

A successful rancher, Jim finds himself the subject of malicious and false rumors that he is a cattle rustler and is murdered by vigilantes while in the sheriff's custody, leaving his widow the "administratrix" of his estate. To find Jim's murderers and avenge his death, Mary disguises herself as a cowboy and infiltrates the gang responsible for lynching her husband.

Let the language of Purr (with an occasional meow thrown in for good measure) welcome you again into their sweet, sleepy world. In Part Two, "The Human Parade," people-watching takes a playful spin. A New York-based journalist, Servin has recently contributed stories to Vogue Living, Martha Stewart Living, and Page Six Magazine. He is the features editor of BlackBook magazine.

A collection of intensive discussions about the role of visual arts in public life The past decade has seen American culture deeply divided by debates over social identity, public morality, communal values and freedom of expression.
