When I walked into the Dallas Contemporary for Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin’s solo exhibition, Pretty Much Everything, I wasn’t totally sure what to expect, but as an art lover who also loves fashion and pop culture I knew I had to attend. I had, of course, perused the images included in the press [...]

‘Gallery Girl’ on “Gallery Girls,” THE FINALE
Well y’all, we made it. While the episodes were sometimes painful to watch, I have thoroughly enjoyed recapping them for you! So let’s talk about the SEASON FINALE. The Gallery Girls finale was filled with drama but little to no conclusion! Such a letdown. You know those little still frames with two sentences of epilogue [...]
‘Gallery Girl’ on “Gallery Girls,” Episode 7
Just a heads up: this week I may end up skipping a pretty large portion of “happenings” on the show in order to vent a little bit on a different gallery girl related topic. So if you’re looking for a strict play-by-play this week, you’re going to have to google something else. To be fair, [...]
‘Gallery Girl’ on “Gallery Girls,” Episode 6
This week I had the pleasure of watching ‘Gallery Girls’ with my parents. Any hope I had that they might find the show entertaining was dashed when the credits started rolling. Immediately, my dad asked, “Is it over?” and when I replied that yes that is usually what credits mean he blurted out, “OH THANK [...]
‘Gallery Girl’ on “Gallery Girls,” Episode 5
For episode 5 of ‘Gallery Girls’, let’s begin by discussing Maggie’s attempt to leave the clutches of Eli Klein. After taking a quick trip with her boyfriend to visit her parents, and having literally everyone there tell her she seems super unhappy with her job, Maggie finally decides to start looking for a paid position [...]
‘Gallery Girl’ on “Gallery Girls,” Episode 4
Let me just start this off by apologizing if this post seems less inspired than my previous four. You see, I’m lucky I remembered what day Monday was this week. And no, I don’t mean that it was “Gallery Girls” Day, I mean that it was a Monday at all. An example of my brain [...]
‘Gallery Girl’ on “Gallery Girls,” Episode 3
So episode three of “Gallery Girls” starts off with the girls of Eli Klein Fine Art, which is good for the purposes of this blog because that’s where I have the majority of problems with this episode. As per usual, Liz is shown picking at her nails and vaguely clicking away at her computer (aka [...]
‘Gallery Girl’ on “Gallery Girls,” Episode 2
The beginning of the second episode of “Gallery Girls” started off with Claudia returning to End of Century after the opening rager, so let’s start this by checking in with the girls of EOC. Surprise, surprise, Claudia did all of the cleaning up while Chantal had a French press coffee, went to yoga, and arrived [...]
‘Gallery Girl’ on “Gallery Girls,” Episode 1
So the majority of episode one of Bravo’s “Gallery Girls” was big on introducing the girls and low on any actual art. Or, you know, working. What is important to note here is that there is a clear division between the girls from Brooklyn and the Upper East Side (or UES for short). Apparently each [...]
Art Narc: A ‘Gallery Girl’ on “Gallery Girls”
Some of you may have seen “Gallery Girls,” the new Bravo “reality” show which premiered on August 13. For those of you who are less of a slave to Bravo’s programming than I sadly am, what this show claims to do is to give you “a glimpse of the super cutthroat world in which these [...]
