Is it really Leo who made those money decisions and not the people who are running his foundations?

 

Yeah, now IDK... because his foundation changed. Still, I'am sure he have a voice and after all he's the one using his image to raise awareness, he's the image of the foundation.

Apparently some artist will present some form ( candle ?) of Leo's face next week

 

Quote

Urs Fischer’s next solo show at Gagosian gallery in Paris, which opens in two weeks, carries a one-word, three-letter title: “Leo.” A source close to the gallery tells ARTnews that the Leo in question is none other than the actor, environmentalist, and noted art collector Leonardo DiCaprio.

 

 

Sculptural portraits have been a major part of Fischer’s practice for many years now, and he has depicted as wax candles a cast of characters that includes artist Julian Schnabel, collectors Peter Brant and Dasha Zhukova (for a show titled, simply, “Dasha”), and art dealer Bruno Bischofberger with his wife Yoyo. The source says that the DiCaprio piece is most likely a candle, but that is not definite. (A rep for Gagosian, for the record, has not confirmed the DiCaprio reference, and Fischer could not immediately be reached.)

 

Fischer, who is 46, is best known for beguiling sculptures that take a formidable array of forms, from shiny mirrored cubes printed with various images, to a house made of baguettes, to a giant clay sculpture of Katy Perry that viewers were allowed to touch and rework when it was displayed in a pop-up space in Manhattan.

Sighting of Leo at political fundraiser for Pete Buttigieg    in  LA Tuesday night

 

Quote

To kick-off the next fundraising period, Buttigieg was back on Tuesday in Los Angeles. He’s been able to draw a significant chunk of support from prominent showbiz figures.

 

On Tuesday evening, he headlined a fundraiser at the home of Michael Kives, founder of the investment advisory firm K5 Global, and his wife Lydia, a civil rights lawyer. DiCaprio and Hilton were among the guests, and a source said that other attendees included Glenn Close and Ashton Kutcher. Co-hosts included MGM’s Jonathan Glickman and writer Christy Callahan; CAA’s Richard Lovett; and Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom.

Hi Enrico_sw:flower:. I had to re-watch it the third time to finally appreciate the film and all the performances. The first time I went ‘this is trying too hard’, so I rewatched to get the full nuance of it, especially Leo’s performance! 

 

Thanks ox for the Leo sighting!
