  Art By Don Hershman Award-winning Artist Don Hershman marked the latest chapter in his 30-year art career spanning both America’s East and West coast with the opening of his solo exhibition, = OUT OF LINE =, at One Art Space in Tribeca.  The new exhibition, = OUT OF LINE =, Open through Tuesday, October 20th, 2026 is curated by MaryAnn Giella McCulloh and brings together works from four collections of his artwork creating a visual journey through some of the artists defining themes. Across portraiture, rural architecture, still lifes and urban surfaces, repeated and overlapping lines build color, rhythm, atmosphere and emotional resonance. The exhibition also offers a window into the unusual duality that has shaped Hershman’s creative life.

DR JUDY KURIANSKY PARTIES WITH DITA VON TEESE AT MUSEUM OF SEX

A bevy of sex divas of New York – radio sex doc Judy Kuriansky, erotica producer Candida Royalle, cross-dressers’ dean Veronica Vera, former Kinsey Institute director June Reinisch and hard-core vintage porn star Vanessa delRio -- were out in style for the 1st Annual Museum of Sex gala to benefit the Muse Foundation of New York. 24-year old burlesque performer Dita Von Teese – ex of Goth rock star Marilyn Manson – stripped down to sequined pasties and a g-string, folding herself into a feathered clam shell and then writhed in a bathtub, running water over her body and arched legs, occasionally splashing the crowd. Scantily-clad hunks offered guests free Pure Romance sex toys. Sex therapist Joy Davidson proved her credentials from the American Association of Sex Educators and Therapists, by warning that the tiger-fur lined toy hand cuffs “tighten real fast, and so are more dangerous than the real ones the cops use.” Veronica Vera – founder of the famous cross-dressing academy “Miss Vera’s School for Boys Who Want to be Girls” -- led a silver-haired man by a dog choker around his neck. “I’m a Republican,” he announced, “but I decided to come in disguise, wearing a dog collar. Retorted Vera, “A lot of Republicans need dog collars.” 70s porn star Vanessa delRio – famous for her large-bosom, back-door sex acts, and genitals large enough to be tied -- touted her autobiography being released in September by Taschen, the deluxe German publishing house. “The pictures show really nasty, slutty behavior,” noted the 55-year old first Hispanic porn actress.
Auctioned off were a “Naughty Night” at the penthouse suite of the midtown Goth and fetish Night Hotel and a night on the town with Scottish actor/ producer Alan Cumming of Golden Eye and Cabaret fame. A walk-on in adult star turned filmmaker Candida Royalle’s next erotic film drew the top dollar ($2,000) bid from a twenty-something female who wasn’t sure she’d get naked for the role “because she works in a bank.”The glitzy event was at the Angel Orenz Foundation on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, a neo-Gothic former synagogue now a hip center of education and culture in New York City.
