AMALIA DAYAN
A partner in the gallery Luxembourg & Dayan, Amalia Dayan says she feels most herself when she is wearing anything Lanvin, be it minimalist or romantic. (‘‘I like to feel like I am ready to sell a painting!’’ she says.) She also feels perfectly in her element in the austere but glamorous David Adjaye-designed town house she shares with her husband, the investor and art collector Adam Lindemann, and their two young daughters. The living room is like a mini-museum — Basquiat on the wall, Chamberlain in the corner, Calder overhead. But Dayan, who has been known to host yoga classes in the downstairs gallery, finds the house to be at once very original and surprisingly livable — and even cozy. ‘‘It is unique,’’ she says, ‘‘but not intimidating.’’

 

Faith Ringgold Withdraws Support From Harlem

"The Faith Ringgold Children’s Museum of Art & Storytelling was to be part of a new development on 155th Street and St. Nicholas Avenue and include affordable housing. The building was to be designed by the British architect David Adjaye — who was commissioned for the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington — and include a performance space, a library, a store and a cafe."
