What's the right amount of time to keep to yourself after the death of a loved one? How long before you can be seen smiling in public without being called callous, or worse? When you're very famous, as our cover girl Lea Michele is, what can you do to avoid the criticism you'll receive for appearing on the Teen Choice Awards less than a month after your boyfriend, also very famous, died of a drug overdose? Not much, actually, so you should probably just do whatever feels right and best to help yourself get through it. As Michele did. She opens up to writer Lizzy Goodman this month about what it's like to face such an unfathomable loss, in the public eye and in private, where real life is lived.…

Carter Smith PROVENANCE: Bailey Island, ME NOW: New York City PROFESSION: Photographer, writer, director THIS MONTH: "Brave Heart" (page 282) BONA FIDES: Work has appeared in GQ and Allure MASTER CLASS: "I love Andrew Wyeth. I can sit and stare and never be tired of looking at his work. It might be that the world he's capturing is very close to me, being from Maine, but I think there is something so breathtaking and beautiful and timeless about his paintings and drawings. It's a world that doesn't seem to exist anymore." UPCOMING: "I wrote and directed a movie called Jamie Marks Is Dead. It's taken about three to four years to pull it together. It's about the murder of a high school boy who comes back as a ghost looking…

(From left) Joel Kyack, Most games are lost, not won, 2012, at Frieze New York, 2012; Carol Bove, Celeste, 2013, part of the High Line Commission For an art curator, Cecilia Alemani spends a lot of time worrying about the weather. She's become an amateur meteorologist, or at least a chance-of-rain anticipator, since she was named director of the art program for the High Line, an abandoned railroad turned elevated park that threads through the postindustrial luxe of Manhattan's Chelsea—home to the greatest concentration of art galleries on the planet. To mark the close of a wet summer, she'd organized a September 18 performance for High Line patrons that could have easily been washed out: Pablo Bronstein's "Intermezzo: Two girls wear fashion garments on a palm tree" was scheduled to…

FEED cofounder Lauren Bush Lauren tours East Africa to meet with artisans crafting holiday accessories, the sale of which provides meals to local schoolchildren through the United Nations World Food Programme. At a remote school perched on a rise in Rwanda, in what is known as "the land of a thousand hills," six-year-old Jean greets his American visitors carrying a bag handcrafted from recycled sackcloth. Here in sub-Saharan Africa, everything is recycled: Old tires become flip-flops and carpet scraps, insoles. It was traveling to places like this—and meeting children like Jean—that inspired Lauren Bush Lauren to create the first FEED bag, with the aim of raising money to fund school meals. "For it to be a success, the design had to reflect the cause," Bush Lauren says. And apparently it…

Rashida Jones may not have retained everything she learned in fourth grade, but she can tell you with certainty that her teacher, Miss Terhagen, always wore a gold pineapple anklet. That grade-school memory made it into Fine by Dannijones, the actress's collection of pendants, anklets, ear cuffs, and rings featuring four motifs: a pineapple, a palm tree, a unicorn, and a triple arrow. The pieces, done in collaboration with sisters Danielle and Jodie Snyder of Dannijo, will be sold on Dannijo.com starting in mid-November. For those familiar with the Snyders' oversize necklaces and arm-party baubles, the delicate charms may come as a bit of a surprise; this departure from house style is the result of Jones' West Coast influence. "In L.A., it's harder to wear statement jewelry," the actress says.…

The "King of Cool" Steve McQueen wore one. As did Lawrence of Arabia, Che Guevara, Amelia Earhart, and Harry Potter. The article in question is a classic four-pocket motorcycle jacket by British heritage brand Belstaff. Founded in 1924 and recently relaunched by Labelux Group (which also owns Jimmy Choo), Belstaff has revved its engine, so to speak, with a full range of moto finery such as buttery leather trousers and silky tailored iterations of its outerwear, as well as full-on runway shows. The brand celebrated the grand opening of its new flagship, Belstaff House, on a dark and stormy—i.e., typically English—night during London Fashion Week: Bright Young Brits such as Edie Campbell, Amber Le Bon, and Harley Viera-Newton turned out in force on New Bond Street to cheer on a…

August: Osage County causes terrors that you can't take your eyes off of. Over the course of her busy career, Meryl Streep has played plenty of good girls and good women, but the bad ones have been surprisingly sparse: It pretty much comes down to The Devil Wears Prada's Miranda Priestly and The Iron Lady's Margaret Thatcher. Our greatest living film actress has never played a really terrible woman—say, a Medea—on screen or stage: until now. That's essentially her role in John Wells' hilarious, hair-raising film version of Tracy Letts' Pulitzer Prize–winning play August: Osage County. Never mind ancient Greece—this Medea, Streep's Violet Weston, is firmly rooted in the Oklahoma plains and in a family so dysfunctional you have to see it to believe it; and quite happily, you do.…

1. INVISIBLE EVE (RIZZOLI) Photographer Yousef Khanfar's lambent, unretouched black-and-white portraits of women in Oklahoma's prisons (the state has the world's highest per capita rate of female incarceration), along with a few thoughts from each subject, eloquently testify to the human cost of their misadventures—not least to their children. 2. ART & PLACE (PHAIDON) This highly chromatic and eclectic visual compendium of "site-specific art of the Americas," from pre-Columbian to present day and from Canada to Chile (below: the Church of Saint Francis of Assisi in Belo Horizonte, Brazil), showcases virtually every form of artistic endeavor imaginable. 3. CAUGHT IN THE ACT (GLITTERATI) Photographer Howard Schatz persuaded 85 actors to sit and, with astonishingly vivid results, method act (or just ham) their way through an off-the-wall array of dramatic situations…

For a new take on Friday-night lights, makeup artist Zoe Taylor blended YSL eye pencils in Smoky Purple and Amber Brown into this "delicious" rusty amber-maroon, then pressed on YSL Rouge Pur Couture lipstick in Beige Tribute for a "kissed-off" finish—a union that's perfectly unpolished. THIS MONTH IN BEAUTY The makeup-brush backlash page 232 // The art (and fashion) world's favorite derm page 238 // Glowing skin secrets from the UK page 246 Save your glitter for spring: Although sparkle was all over (literally) the recent NYC runway shows, our go-to party makeup this season is soft, subtle, and supersexy. For this shoot, makeup artist Zoe Taylor—Keira Knightley and Victoria Beckham's smoky-eye expert—drew inspiration from "last night's makeup, slept in, then worn with pride." Taylor worked black kohl eyeliner into…

It's the first day of London Fashion Week, but instead of darting about town reporting the latest beauty looks from backstage, I'm booked for an interview with legendary British facialist Amanda Lacey. "It's a dreadful mess," she says, gesturing to her immaculate Diptyque Figuier candle–scented home clinic in the city's posh Chelsea neighborhood. "Do you fancy some tea?" Scoring an appointment with Lacey is a highly coveted event: She tends to the luminous skin of Gwyneth Paltrow, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Erin Wasson, among others. I should be thrilled, but instead I'm filled with anxiety: I'm fascinated by Lacey's skin-care philosophy, yes, but also petrified of letting her touch my face. A few years ago, I had a bad facial. That kicked off a bout of acne, and I've been on…

Perezutti Hearst, in her own design, strikes a pose in the main house's entryway, which boasts reclaimed-wood paneling and cement floors. "It's our version of a kibbutz—where we go to unwind," quips Candela designer Gabriela Perezutti Hearst, welcoming me to the vacation compound in Punta del Este on Uruguay's Atlantic coast where she shares holidays, in true collective community style, with various combinations of the following people: her husband, Austin Hearst; their Brady Bunch blended clan of her 5-year-old twins, Mia and Olivia; his two children, Andie, 18, and Sam, 17; and their two close Argentinian friends, Osvaldo Brucco and Paola Pravato. "This Thanksgiving," says Perezutti Hearst, "we're planning to be a whole soccer team!" Born to one of Uruguay's oldest ranching families, Perezutti Hearst couldn't be kept down on…

WEDDING CRASHING DEAR E. JEAN: I won't bore you with how amazing and perfect my fiancé is except to say that he's wonderful, and that he recently surprised me with a $52,000 Mercedes, a beautiful apartment, and a 4-carat diamond ring. I myself have spent $9,500 on a wedding dress and $20,000 just for the wedding planner. But now I'm waking up every morning afraid I've reached the point of no return: My ex-boyfriend is back! He had lost his hedge fund job and thought it best to get out of New York, so he spent the past two years on his parents' property outside Durham, North Carolina, getting his MBA at Duke. Now he has returned and is looking for a job. I'm ashamed to admit it, but we…

UNBREAKABLE For our October 2013 cover story, pop priestess Lady Gaga gave Nojan Aminosharei an emotionally exposed look at the woman behind the performance. At her shoot, Gaga was radiant in minimalist pieces by Dries Van Noten and Versace. Whether she's in survivor mode—as she calls it, "Rocky, round 12"—or faux-lash-less and vulnerable, ELLE readers clearly adore their Mother Monster: "She's absolutely a perfectionist, and flawless!" —Jeffrey Ortega, ELLE.com "This woman breaks the stereotype of beauty, and so much more, that's why I love her!" —xJUUGO, Youtube.com, in response to ELLE's exclusive cover-shoot video "Considering Gaga's public ensembles have, thus far, included a meat dress and a giant egg, I can only imagine what she considers a 'hot mess' look." —Andy Swift, senior entertainment editor, Hollywoodlife.com "WOW, the cover is…

"It gets boring hanging out with yourself when you're traveling—you want to meet new people," says Sabine Heller. The 36-year-old has just begun her elevator pitch for A Small World, a social network founded in 2004 and relaunched with Heller at the helm earlier this year. The basic idea: For an annual fee of $105, members of the site—a vetted group that includes Grammy-winning violinist Joshua Bell, actor Joseph Fiennes, and others Heller describes as "citizens of the world in one way or another"—are able to make their worlds just a bit smaller by checking into a given location and connecting with other members in their vicinity. "You want to know that the person you're meeting up with at 10 o'clock at night in Capetown has something in common with…

MEMENTO MORI Damien Hirst, whose most famous works include a formaldehyde-preserved shark and a platinum human skull bedzazzled with 8,601 diamonds, is lending his touch to the Alexander McQueen skull scarf first seen in the designer's shipwreck-chic spring 2003 Irere collection. Each of the 30 tenth-anniversary limited-edition designs include insects and arachnids from Hirst's "Entomology" series laid out to create the avant-garde British brand's signature death's-head motif. DIGGIN' IT Luxe Los Angeles boutique Just One Eye always makes headlines with its inspired limited editions. The shop's latest arty offering? Simone Harouche—formerly a stylist to the likes of Miley and J.Lo—has designed 25 one-of-a-kind bags in collaboration with apostrophe-averse Angeleno artist collective Clamdiggin (aka the husband-and-wife duo of Alexandra Fisher and Kevin Johnson). The illustration-heavy clutches, shoulder bag, and backpacks will…

Anchorman is one of my three favorite no-think, all-fun films. There are days when you just need an utterly escapist movie-watching experience. And much like Zoolander and The Princess Bride, my other two favorites, the '70s newscaster satire always delivers. It feels at once retro and oddly fresh—not to mention laugh-out-loud, memorize-every-word hilarious. For me, the highlight of every date with Will Ferrell's Ron Burgundy is the character's signature sign-off from his KVWN Channel 4 News broadcast: "You stay classy, San Diego." While Ron himself may not epitomize class per se, he and Anchorman have become a classic—and one I can get behind. Putting aside his polyester suits, body-hugging turtlenecks, and even the porn-star 'stache, his off-kilter swagger is timeless—and a little inspiring. And, yes, I relish the visuals: the…

The Woman: Kyle DeWoody, 29, Fort Greene, Brooklyn The Job: Creative director and cofounder of e-commerce site Grey Area, which sells art, jewelry, and objets by artists such as Andrea Mary Marshall and Ryan McGinness The Uniform: Staples from Acne; skirts topped with chunky sweaters. "I like to undercut elegant with something a little more punk or oversize." ELLE: Where did the idea for Grey Area come from? KDW: I wanted a way to work with artists that could live outside the seriousness of the art world. And [my business partner] Manish, who I knew through the art scene, approached me with the idea of doing this online shop. If someone loves an artist and can't afford his or her traditional works, our inventory is a solution. At the same…

"Last week I was in Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Tequila, Mexico," says Bertha González Nieves. "The week prior I was in Chicago, Miami, and Las Vegas." Since bringing Casa Dragones—a superpremium brand of 100 percent blue agave tequila—to shelves with former AOL Time Warner COO Bob Pittman in 2009, the maestra tequilera has been constantly on the move. "We go where the business is," she says, and they often go there on Pittman's yacht, Freedom, sister ship to the presidential yacht U.S.S. Sequoia. For a woman with such an enviable travel itinerary, it would be easy to hit all of the world's top boutiques. But González Nieves happens to be particularly jazzed about the "perfect statement pieces" she's picked up from far-flung places without ever getting off the boat: A…

In mockumentary ensemble hits We Can Be Heroes (Sundance, 2006) and Summer Heights High (HBO, 2008), American audiences fell for Australian comedian/writer/director/actor Chris Lilley's gender-swapped portrayal of contemptuous private-school queen bee Ja'mie (pronounced Juh-may) King, she who excels at breaking the spirits of the unpopular girls, the less fortunate, and the lowly lower classmates—while still boasting, "Like, everyone thinks I'm really nice." On November 24, Ja'mie returns to headline her own half-hour, six-episode HBO series, Ja'mie: Private School Girl, and she's set to terrorize at full tilt. Degrading ("I had to get rid of [my old friend group], 'cause like, Brianna, my bestie, was like, she kinda got really weird and fat"), homophobic (yelled at a girl in the locker room: "Some of us are straight in here—don't look!"), and…

NONFICTION: REBECCA DANA, JUJITSU RABBI AND THE GODLESS BLONDE (Amy Einhorn Books/Putnam) It's impressive that Dana's book (narrowly) won the nod this year over novelist Richard Russo's admired memoir, Elsewhere, about his childhood with a troubled mother. It's also impressive that a personal story with one foot well out of the American mainstream—in Brooklyn's ultra-Orthodox Hasidic Jewish community—attracted and held the attention of readers from all over America. That's where this Pittsburgh native ended up, apartment sharing with a Russian-émigré rabbi, when her happy, shiny Manhattan coupledom and media-industry career went off the rails. "Rebecca Dana's account of her personal growth following the demise of a romance and her roommate Cosmo's growth as he questions his faith is a fascinating story of two people trying to find their true selves…

Six years ago, a Florida college freshman named Michelle Phan opened up a MacBook Pro, on loan from her school, and uploaded to YouTube a video of herself putting on makeup. She called the clip, which was edited down to about seven minutes with overdubbed audio, "Makeup Tutorial: A Natural Approach." The lesson—which included tips on applying concealer, foundation, liquid eyeliner, mascara, blush, lipstick, and lip gloss—went viral, generating 40,000 hits in one week; today, the total number stands at just over 10 million. One of the most striking constants in Phan's now 270-clip beauty-video library is her reliance on makeup brushes to distribute concise, concentrated doses of pigment. This technique has also become the hallmark of YouTube beauty gurus such as Kandee Johnson, From Head To Toe, and Blair…

This happened in Rome not long ago, in 2006—in the twenty-first century, in other words. The influential but out-of-the-limelight artist Carrie Mae Weems had received a prestigious fellowship at the American Academy in Rome, and not only was she grateful to be in Italy and having the time of her life, she was actually connecting the cultural dots, using the city as a backdrop to produce some of her best work to date. One day, though, a past fellow—Weems won't say who—paid a visit to the academy's villa atop Janiculum Hill and sputtered, "Carrie Mae Weems, what—what are you doing here?" Weems could have said that her work—based in photography, and about African-American life, by all means, but obsessed too with gender, class, and history—had as much right to a…

"I do not like to perform or work at any level below one hundred percent," our December cover girl, Lea Michele, tells writer Lizzy Goodman. "It's sort of a lesson for me to learn in life that sometimes you can't, and that's okay." It's certainly not a sentiment you expect to hear from the go-getting Glee star—but one that is humanly refreshing. This month in ELLE's annual Women in Art package, we celebrate eight art-world luminaries who also live—and work—full throttle, including rhinestone-loving painter Mickalene Thomas, whose late mother threw parties that inspired Better Days, a bar-as-installation that was the hot spot of this year's Art Basel, and Marilyn Minter, who will show her signature extreme close-ups of pearl-embellished body parts in all their gritty-glam glory at this month's Art…

"I hate pretty," Oscar de la Renta, whose way with a certain kind of exquisite party frock is second to none, is saying in his charmingly accented English. "It's a very empty word. It gives a bad name to beauty." The 81-year-old designer breaks into song—"I Feel Pretty" from West Side Story—to illustrate his point or, perhaps, send it up. One thing this urbane, impeccably dressed man with a permanent twinkle in his eye doesn't do, I quickly discover upon visiting him in his white-on-white offices on West 42nd Street, is take himself—or the world of fashion, for that matter—too seriously. He mentions coming upon a bunch of his old designs in Barneys' vintage department and confesses to finding some of them "hideous." Which isn't to say that he doesn't…

In more ways than one, Jeremy Renner was a late bloomer (see below). Kicking around L.A. since 1993, long before The Hurt Locker's surprise win for Best Picture—accompanied by his nomination for Best Actor—at the 2010 Academy Awards, he supported himself with a series of odd jobs between acting gigs. How odd? Well, he's probably the only member of The Avengers to have worked as a makeup artist at the Lancôme counter. (Really.) But persistence clearly paid off in spades—and accolades. After scoring a second Oscar nod for his tightly wound work in The Town in 2011, the Modesto, California, native finds himself on the award trail again this winter with American Hustle, David O. Russell's follow-up to Silver Linings Playbook. The film, a true-life con-man story, stars Bradley Cooper…

THE X FACTOR Unfamiliar with Priyanka Chopra, the most sought-after actress in Bollywood? At this point, you just might be alone—she has more than 5 million Facebook fans and 4 million Twitter followers. And although she's long been ubiquitous in India, Chopra isn't one to settle for anything less than global icon status—hence her swift, chart-topping entrée into pop music this past year. Judging by her anthemic dance-pop collaborations with the likes of will.i.am ("In My City," which landed her the 2013 theme song of the NFL Network's Thursday Night Football) and Pitbull ("Exotic"), she's certainly on her way. And this month, Chopra adds ELLE.com blogger-in-residence to her glinting résumé. Though Chopra's first album won't drop until early 2014, the singer is already well versed in the ways of a…

The ELLE team took the fashion fast track this month when shooting Glee star Lea Michele at the Orange Show Speedway in San Bernardino, California. Photographer Carter Smith: "We riffed on a classic pinup: a gorgeous girl and a car." ELLE Creative Director Joe Zee: "I was inspired by early photos of Cindy Crawford and Kate Moss at the racetrack." Assistant Fashion Editor Sarah Schussheim: "Lea especially loved the Tom Ford leather and gold Saint Laurent accessories." Hairstylist Harry Josh: "She also requested pump-up music, so we rocked out to Justin Timberlake, Gaga, and Jay Z." Videographer Marcel Wepper: "Lea sang along the whole time, and chatted about her upcoming album. When it comes to her career, Lea's in the driver's seat."—Catherine Straut Vintage motorcycle helmet, from abrshop.etsy.com ,…

…or fox, or mink, or… When it comes to fur, everybody's got an opinion—if you wear one, be prepared to hear them. Pamela Erens asks the forbidden question: Is all that animosity just about animal rights? I am a small, slender woman with such low blood pressure that nurses joke I must be dead, and a circulation that correspondingly never quite reaches my fingers and toes. From early October to late April I am continuously cold. So on New Jersey days when the temperature drops below freezing, I open my closet, look at the fur coat my grandmother bought for me 27 years ago, and ask myself whether I feel like getting into a bunch of discussions about my outerwear today. If I don't (usually the case) I close the…

This past June, Maria Grazia Chiuri was racing against the clock to finish her spring 2014 menswear collection in time for the Paris shows, just in time to embark on an entirely different sort of race: one that involved cruising from Barcelona to Rome in a Maserati GranCabrio. Chiuri—codesigner, along with Pierpaolo Piccioli, of the house of Valentino—had signed on as a brand sponsor for Cash & Rocket's second annual tour. The four-day, ladies-only road trip enlisted 70 women in fashion, business, and media, as well as international royalty, to clock hundreds of miles a day—and decadently refuel on Veuve Cliquot, with obligatory Breathalyzer tests each morning—in a rarefied fundraising effort for a roster of female-focused charities in Africa. Chiuri decided to ride shotgun while her 18-year-old daughter, Rachele, steered…

LOS ANGELES For a high-art take on story time, Alphabet Book chronicles photographer Tierney Gearon's cherubic children (who are frequent subjects in her work) as they make their way from A to Z. artbook.com LOS ANGELES Wren's Melissa Coker has teamed up with hipster lingerie label the Lake & Stars on a new line of vintage-inspired swimwear.

"I was just lying in bed in London watching this awful reality show, Made in Chelsea," says Caroline Hougen, recalling the moment she found out that she had won the ELLE FASHION | NEXT Design Award. "My brother called me to say, 'You won!' and I said, 'No, I didn't, this is an awful, awful joke,' and he said, 'No, seriously.' " For the 25-year-old, the realization that she was one of two recipients each awarded a $25,000 prize at ELLE's fourth annual FASHION | NEXT show finally sank in when her brother texted her a picture of himself, receiving the prize in her stead, next to editor-in-chief Robbie Myers: " 'Okay,' I said. 'I believe you now.' " The show, which took place September 6 at Lincoln Center—home of…

When Margot Robbie is angling for an audition, she invariably runs lines on her submission tape with—who else?—Dylan, the agreeable guy who works in her manager's digital department. What the tactic lacks in polish, it makes up for in charm. So much so that when the time came for Ellen Lewis, Martin Scorsese's longtime casting director, to cast the role of Naomi—Leonardo DiCaprio's manipulative, Versace-clad second wife in The Wolf of Wall Street (based on the memoirs of '90s stock Svengali Jordan Belfort)—Robbie's tape compelled Lewis to take a closer look. And despite a short list rumored to include Blake Lively and Amber Heard, upon meeting Robbie, Lewis says the role was hers "pretty much right away." Such is the lure of the 23-year-old Gold Coast native who in 2008,…

Literary historian Sherill Tippins' Inside the Dream Palace (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt) is a dynamic portrait of New York City's fabled Chelsea Hotel, established in 1884 by French architect Philip Hubert as an idealistic, communalist-inspired apartment cooperative that later morphed into a celebrated and mystery-laden residential hotel. Standing at what was once the business and cultural crossroads of Manhattan on West 23rd Street close to 7th Avenue, the 12-story neo-Gothic red brick pile drew generations of artists, oddballs, visionaries, and renegades—including Tennessee Williams, Virgil Thomson, Brendan Behan, Edgar Lee Masters, William S. Burroughs, Janis Joplin, Leonard Cohen, Patti Smith, and Sam Shepard. Customized apartments ranging from studios to duplexes were graced with meticulously crafted stained-glass transoms, white marble fireplaces, Moorish mosaics, Hudson River School paintings, comic gargoyles, and sunflower tracery on…

On the fortieth anniversary of her classic novel of female coming-of-age, Fear of Flying, Erica Jong dings Martin Amis and Arianna Huffington, celebrates "living life as a lusty human being," and talks about believing in her own talent. My dog and I left Ennis, Montana, my home for 20 years, at midnight, September 30, 1982, and drove like banshees to New York City, where we rented an apartment for $400 a month. The highlight of this abode—aside from the wonderful fact that it was located beneath a family of gypsies—was that it possessed dirt floors where my dog, a cattle dog of exceptional beauty (she possessed the face of Diane Keaton) could bury her bones in the living room. Having then unpacked, and donning a pair of banana-colored cowgirl boots,…

The first thing you see upon entering the pristine white offices of Dr. Brandt Dermatology Associates in Manhattan is a large Damien Hirst polka-dot painting. And that's only the beginning: Between tending to the complexions of his devoted celebrity clientele (Madonna, Gwyneth, Kelly Ripa), expanding his 12-year-old skin-care line, and conducting groundbreaking dermatological studies, Fredric Brandt, MD, has also been quietly amassing a collection of modern art that would make MoMA weep. "I started about 25 years ago," Brandt says. "My first purchases were lithographs, because that's all I could afford at the time. Now I have about 300 works of art. I hate to feel like I'm neglecting anyone." Among those treasures—which Brandt displays in his Chelsea art-district apartment and his ultramodern home in Miami, as well as in…

Nicole Sachs remembers perfectly the moment she realized she was gay. "I was driving to the city to have dinner with a friend I've known since we were 19," she says. "I'm going down the parkway from Westchester, and it's very beautiful, very scenic, you know, the trees blowing in the wind, the sun coming through the clouds—and I had this crazy epiphany. I was like: I'm gay. It's okay. It's who I am." At the time, Nicole had been separated from her husband for a year and had begun exploring same-sex relationships but was in the midst of one last reconciliation attempt with him. "I started having this fantasy that I'd just stay married until I was in my sixties, and one day I'd meet some woman and she…

We are here to learn how to swim. By we, I am referring to the two dozen or so men and women between the ages of 20 and 60 who are huddled at the edge of the Y pool on East 14th Street in New York City. Though we haven't yet dipped a toe in, we're all wet because a large sign in the locker room ordered us to shower before entering the pool area. Many of us are wearing impractical bathing suits that have never seen water. Because we are also required to wear swim caps, we look very strange—the neat contours of our bodies and protruding goggles give us the appearance of wary extraterrestrials visiting an unknown planet. Our nearly naked state reveals that we have a surprising…

MARILYN MINTER The Erotic Thriller Marilyn Minter makes big "dirty" paintings of body parts in extreme close-up. They zero in on glistening red lips dripping with sweat. Or muddy feet in high heels splashed by rain. Or eyelids smacked with glitter. Painted in enamel on slick metal surfaces—the final coat always applied using her fingers—Minter's pictures infuse the grotesque with the glamorous. That ability to make the repulsive look sexy has won her an audience that continues to grow—a retrospective of her career will open in 2015 at Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, then travel to other cities—and she's only getting better at it. Back in 1989, Minter took images from cookbooks and painted them so suggestively that she titled the works Food Porn. But for most of her career as…
