...Silvano, Lawson sips Gavi di Gavi while chomping on duck, branzino and brains. "I'm like a Chinese Jew," she says. "I love brains and sweetbreads and all that stuff." At the next table, fellow Brit Tim Curry spots Lawson and offers a seated bow. "I have them all!" he screams, presumably about her books. But it's far too loud to hear anything.

...Also, like the example of Warhol and Koons before him, Murakami rarely makes his own stuff anymore. He conceptualizes and sketches every major work and follows up with critiques and color corrections throughout production, but he seldom puts paint on canvas these days. His artworks require layer upon layer of acrylics to produce their flawlessly shiny, signature sheen, and he leaves that tedious task to the 40 apprentices he employs in a factory-style commune 20 kilometers outside Tokyo and another 15 disciples in a Brooklyn, New York City, warehouse...
