Judith Lieber has been in the handbag industry for sixth five years…..starting out in Budapest before moving to New York.
Many of her handbags…….fascinating and luxurious…………are encrusted with Swarovski crystals. She began her company in 1964 and designed her last handbag in 2004.
Her handbags cost about $5000………the older ones sell for a lot more.

Richard’s architectural accumulations once littered the backwoods in Quebec.
Using only bailing twine he began building dwellings from discarded objects.
In 2006 he met the photographer Mario Del Curto who started to document his work.
His constructions were on exhibit at the New Museum in the Bowery.

There is a very strange hidden stairway at the NEW MUSEUM………
He who descends………..risks disappearing!
The Danish artist…………HENRIK OLESON did a survey piece in 2007 and calls it “SOME GAY-LESBIAN ARTISTS relevant to the Homo-Social Culture Born between c.1300-1870.”
Funky prints with a “queer eye.”
These are just a few of the photos in this exhibition.
Some of these faces will make you SMILE. Some will STARTLE you. Some will RATTLE your cage. I found most of them in thrift shops…….and some of them are now in my apartment.
