In a celebration of the launch of my 2nd Issue of XXXX Magazine, The “Untitled” Magazine I presented a screening and cocktail party on June 23rd at my loft, showing the latest fashion and video art films produced for the magazine. The screening was an overwhelming success, with over 500 people in attendance… We had an after-party at Provocatuer Lounge with 3 projections of the videos scattered through out the garden lounge. The issue was based on the theme Surreal, and included the work of many contributors…
