Leonardo DiCaprio kicks off Art Basel with late-night partying

Quote


Art Basel Miami doesn’t officially kick off until Thursday, but Leonardo DiCaprio and Lenny Kravitzstarted early at the art fair, spies said, and partied till 3:30 a.m. on Tuesday.

DiCaprio is in Miami working on an upcoming environmental documentary with “Racing Extinction” producer Fisher Stevens, sources told Page Six. And he hit the town Sunday at Scarpetta with LIV nightclub impresario David Grutman.

Next, on Monday, he was at restaurant Milos with a group that included Kravitz — who’s mounting a photo exhibition called “Flash” during Art Basel as one of many musicians this year with art shows — and Time Warner’s biggest shareholder, Vivi Nevo.

The party then headed to the grand opening of Chris Paciello’s latest nightclub, Rockwell, where “Transformers” director Michael Bay, Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade, Grutman and Syracuse-and-NBA-star-turned-DJ Rony Seikaly were also partying.

Spies said Kravitz and DiCaprio, seated at adjoining tables, were sent eight bottles of Dom Pérignon. But throughout, “Leo kept a low profile, wearing a hat and enjoying his time with his friends. It looked like it was just a guys’ night out before Art Basel.” The new spot’s run by Paciello — previously of South Beach clubs Liquid and Story — with brother Keith Paciello and Mio Danilovic.

At 2 a.m., rapper Lupe Fiasco performed, and “Leo and his crew of friends were singing along with Lupe the entire time.” Leo partied till 3:30a.m., while Kravitz called it a night at 2:45a.m.

DiCaprio, who’s getting Oscar buzz for his role in “The Revenant,” is still dating model Kelly Rohrbach. Sources said that last Friday, the pair was seen romantically “walking the footpaths of Tod’s Point Beach in Old Greenwich[, Conn.]” together.

But we hear Leo’s leaving Miami on Wednesday, the same day as Art Basel’s invite-only preview that brings out a mix of celebrity and billionaire collectors.

Also on Monday, musician Devonté Hynes and artist Ryan McNamara put on a performance, “Dimensions,” at the Pérez Art Museum Miami.

Art Miami opening night: Big works, big crowd

Fair director and principal Nick Korniloff said the number of requests for VIP credentials this year exceeded 2014, despite a softening economy in Latin America and Europe’s migration crisis. That included Leonardo Dicaprio, who got a private preview of the fair before the hordes arrived. Korniloff said he expected to pass last year’s total visitor count of $82,500. Still, Tuesday night there seemed to be fewer European and South American accents than in years past.

November 30/December 1

Rockwell, the new Washington Avenue night spot, debuted Monday with major star power as Leonardo DiCaprio and Lenny Kravitz were seen mingling as 8 bottles of Dom Perignon were delivered to their table. To top off the night, hip-hop legend Lupe Fiasco grabbed the mic to bring fellow party-goers a show-stopping performance including his famous hit, The Show Goes On. The best-in-show party guests also included Miami HEAT champion Dwyane WadeMichael BayLukas Hass and actor Ethan Suplee.

And now we know why DiCaprio's really in town. Not for the "art" (aka the models), but, rather for The Casper Quiet Rooms. Huh? Casper is a "sleep startup that launched in 2014 with one perfect mattress sold directly to consumers." Leo's an investor. Casper has set up shop at the Loews Hotel Miami Beach, St. Moritz Lawn, where from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. December 1 through 5, four open to the public "quiet rooms" will offer 30 minutes of a "multi-sensory installation featuring a suspended Casper mattress along with video art by NY-based artist Colin Snapp. To reserve your space in the quiet room and for a possible, albeit doubtful, Leo before midnight sighting, click

What happens when Leonardo DiCaprio goes down to Miami for a few days? There's art, champagne and a celebrity entourage – of course. 

Before the premiere of his upcoming film The Revenant, DiCaprio, 41, made his way to Miami earlier this week for Art Basel, enjoying the annual week-long fair celebrating art and fashion. 

After spending a few days hanging out with pals Lenny Kravitz and Dwyane Wade, including drinking and dining at the nightclub Rockwell, DiCaprio immersed himself in the full Art Basel experience Tuesday. His marathon day included visiting various galleries, events and clubs – and staying out into the wee hours of the morning. 

DiCaprio started his day with a private VIP tour of Art Miami before the exclusive art fair opened to the public, and was greeted by Art Miami Fair Director/ Partner Nick Korniloff and wife Pamela Cohen. 

 

The Wolf of Wall Street actor and his friends sipped on coffee from the café as they perused the contemporary art on display – and it didn't take fans long to notice the actor roaming around town.

 

Later that evening, DiCaprio and a few friends – including Lukas Haas – headed to a private event hosted by Galerie Gmurzynska at The Villa at Casa Casuarina (the former Versace mansion) where he mingled with co-hostSylvester Stallone, who previewed his latest artwork. 

DiCaprio was seen wearing a newsboy baseball cap, a dark jacket and button-down shirt as he mingled with fellow partygoers. According to onlookers, DiCaprio looked "thin and fit," sporting a clean-cut beard. 

The actor was also seen speaking with the City of Miami Beach Mayor Philip Levine. 

 

DiCaprio spent his time "social drinking and chatting with guests in the VIP room," the onlooker tells PEOPLE.

 

After a few cocktails, DiCaprio and his crew moved on to The Wall at W Hotel for the "Nightlife Is Beautiful" event hosted Mr. Brainwash, a Los Angeles-based filmmaker and street artist. While at the club, the Titanic star hung out at a large table of fellow celebrities including Kravitz, Paris Hilton, and Jamie Foxx. 

"[He] seemed to be having a great time. He'd wave at the DJ booth when a good song came on," a source tells PEOPLE. 

The actor was seen chatting it up with Foxx, even "leaning in very closely to talk above the loud music." 

The group were all "drinking Belvedere, champagne and tequila," said the source. 

DiCaprio finally decided to call it a night and end his Art Basel marathon at 3 a.m.

This is a really nice article, I see some quotes are repeated from other interview, but still have interesting stuff to read.

 

LOS ANGELES—Dapper as usual in a suit, Leonardo DiCaprio appeared completely different from the dirty-looking fur trapper with the full wild man beard he portrays in Alejandro González Iñárritu’s stunning “The Revenant.”

 

In a performance that some predict will finally make him win an Oscar best actor trophy, Leonardo plays real-life 19th-century frontiersman Hugh Glass with such ferocity and intensity.

Shot by award-winning cinematographer Emmanuel “Chivo” Lubezki in the wilds of Canada and Argentina, the visually spectacular film shows Leonardo (a passionate environmentalist away from the cameras) grappling with the brutal forces of man and nature. In two of the film’s graphic, memorable scenes, Leonardo’s Hugh is attacked by a bear (you’ve never seen anything like it) and sleeps inside the belly of a dead horse to keep himself warm amid freezing conditions.

 

 

This is one of your most intense roles. What was the rehearsal process like?

 

I have never worked on a film quite like this. The process was very unique and unlike anything I have ever done. I have done extensive rehearsals, but what Chivo and Alejandro were trying to achieve, and I think they accomplished, is to bring this massive, epic scope with a static frame and have the ability to weave in very intimate character moments with the camera—the breath, feeling the sweat of these characters, then panning off to a David Lean-style wide shot, then bringing you right back into the soul of the characters.

It’s almost as if they were trying to achieve a virtual cinematic reality. That took months of rehearsals, and every single day was like a little bit of theater because we would rehearse all day long.

We would have this magic hour of an hour and a half where there is this magic light that they would only shoot at. Every day, we waited for this magic piece of light. It was a mad scramble to get the shot and for everybody to work like a Swiss watch. There were so many things that were happening behind the camera. So many people working in coordination with one another but they achieved this incredible intimacy, these close-up moments with these characters—that make you feel like you are really immersed in this movie.

 

Can you talk about filming the violent scenes?

 

I have a penchant for doing movies that have extreme violence in them, I suppose. I don’t know if I am desensitized to it. This film is an accurate depiction of that time period so without getting into what it means on a social level, I like these types of films. They have to be authentic.

This was well-handled and had the perfect fusion of violence and beauty at the same time. It’s portraying nature, and that’s what we wanted to do, the savagery and the beauty of nature. As far as what I had to do, there were so many things. I don’t even know where to begin.

Recently, I said I had to sleep in dead-animal carcasses. I was referring to Hugh Glass, my character, having to do that. But the real challenge was the cold! It was a constant struggle.

They even had to invent machines for the actors not to get hypothermia after every single take that we did, because it was that extreme. It got down to 40 below and sometimes, to the point where the camera actually couldn’t operate and its gears didn’t work, because it was so cold!

So you could imagine how our fingers and faces were. The hands were a constant source of pain. We had machines that were on the set. There was one that I named “the octopus” because it was like a giant hot-air dryer with eight tubes that would warm our hands.

I knew what I had signed up for … . It was very difficult.

 

You had to do a lot of grunting, trying to speak, and a lot of silence, as well. How did that inform your performance, as opposed to your character in “The Wolf of Wall Street,” where you played such an extrovert with a lot of words to say?

 

That was the exciting part about this role. When I read the script, I actually kept urging Alejandro to take more lines out. I wanted less dialogue, because that was the exploration of this character—how to portray someone’s emotional journey without words.

Every time he did speak, I was like, all right, let’s cut it down.  Hugh Glass is a man who does not mince words. He gets straight to the point of what he wants to talk about because I don’t think he necessarily wants to communicate with that many people (laughs).

We see what he goes through, through his eyes, and we experience this whole story without words. That, to me, was very exciting. I have done so many articulate characters who babble throughout movies. This was a new experiment for me. I went to specialists learning about survival tactics. I read as much as I could about the time period, but I really wanted to rely on the instinct of this character—what I am going through in that immediate time. So, a lot of it wasn’t preplanned. A lot of it was seeing what nature gave us and trying to react as honestly as possible.

 

Your character has to endure both noise and silence. How sensitive are you to both?

 

I remember the Simon and Garfunkel song, “The Sound of Silence,” since I just saw “The Graduate.” Silence is incredibly important. Some of the greatest visions and thoughts or ideas come when there are no other voices around, even your own. For me, it’s imperative with the life that I have, how fast-paced it is and how confusing it can be sometimes that I have that silence.

I am not the most spiritual or meditative person out there, but I know that I need those moments of contemplation to get the right answers. I need to drown out all the different clatter and noise that this world can infuse into your mind.

 

Since you’re such a committed environmentalist, I guess that’s what you also look for when dating?

 

Anybody whom I would be with would have to have an environmental agenda or some understanding of environmentalism. She would have to, because I couldn’t be with someone who didn’t believe in climate change, for example.

 

Where do you like to relax and escape a little bit from Hollywood?

 

Two places come to mind. I have done a lot of great traveling. One of the greatest trips I ever took in my life was down the Amazon. It was away from all civilization, but it was so beautiful. It reminded me of my daydreams as a kid, being transported back in time to some Jurassic period when I could just see nature at its purest.

Then a recent trip which I went on, which was astounding and which I recommend everyone to go to, was Angkor Wat in Cambodia. Cambodia is one of the most magical places I have ever seen. The people there are  lovely. You could just get lost for days in the temples. That was one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen!

 

What haven’t you done yet that you would like to achieve?

 

What haven’t I gotten (laughs)? There are a lot of things that I would wish for the world. I am not here to complain about anything because I have been incredibly fortunate. Honestly, there is a lot of stuff that I would love to see happen with the planet that isn’t happening.

On a personal level, I can’t complain about anything. If I heard myself say I wish this or that, it would be nauseating, because I have been so incredibly fortunate. But I would really love if I were to have one of those wishes—to have this Paris climate conference finally have countries come together for the first time and agree on something to curb this insanity that is going on out there with our temperatures.
