Parents are visiting me in NYC and just calculated that the nice hotel suite they are staying at a block from my new apartment costs less per month than my rent. I’m sick.
The Temple of Dendur, an ancient Egyptian structure that counts among the most beloved attractions at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, will this summer host an exhibition of sculptures by the Swiss modernist Alberto Giacometti—a rarity, since the Temple of Dendur does not often act as a space for shows of any kind.
The exhibition, simply titled “Giacometti in the Temple of Dendur,” is a small one, with just 17 of the artist’s sculptures. Fourteen of them belong to the Fondation Giacometti, while the rest come from the Met’s collection.

Frankenstein wasn't written by a man. It wasn't even written by an adult. It was written by an 18-year-old girl... on a dare. In 1816, Mary Shelley was stuck in a mansion during a storm. Lord Byron challenged everyone to write a ghost story. She had nightmares of a scientist who builds life, and regrets it. That became Frankenstein. But this wasn't just horror. It was the first science fiction novel ever written.
Before women could vote. Her story predicted artificial intelligence. Bioengineering. The ethics of creation. It asked: If man plays God... who pays the price? They said a woman couldn't have written it. Publishers erased her name. Gave credit to her husban, poet Percy Shelley. For years, people assumed he wrote it.
Or helped her. Or "cleaned it up." But Mary's notes proved otherwise. The genius was hers.

Previously, I've explored how spending money on something does not necessarily translate to clout. The tote bag is perhaps the perfect vehicle for that. A niche tote is an extremely potent and powerful signal of cultural currency which, in most cases, costs little or nothing. A Dior book tote says nothing about your level of access to elite spaces. A rare biennale bag from a few years ago? That's a conversation starter.
