It’s befitting that magazine editors are savvy at making cool, memorable friendships—across generations, neighborhoods, creative areas, so forth.

Tanya Posternak says a human body is her favorite texture to photograph. At Galerie Timonier for the next month, a selection of photographs from her and her twin sister, Zhenya, take on fresh meanings in their new exhibition, “Orange.” In it, surfaces are not identities but configurations. An ear becomes a landscape. A hand is an object among other objects. In an untitled 2020 image, a brown egg rests between thighs, its aspect ratio matching that of the egg itself.

Blue goes with everything. It pairs well with jeans, with prints, with solids. Navy, in particular, is said to look best with other, brighter colors than black. Regardless of its shade or possibility, though, the color is sacred for Black folk, and in her new book, Black in Blues: How a Color Tells the Story of My People, Imani Perry explains why.

When Alton Mason isn’t busy striking a pose for a cover or walking the runway, he finds comfort in a meal that feels like home: his mother’s mac and cheese. And this isn’t your run of the mill version: renaissance talent like Mason demands an equally layered and dynamic recipe, including five cheeses and a wine pairing from his family’s vineyard (he recommends a Chardonnay or Cabernet).

I am looking at a stick. It is holding up a large, orange square canvas with a glow that radiates off its observants. Titled Orange Glyph, 2019, it is a part of a series of paintings by Denzil Hurley, who passed away in 2021 at 72. Displayed in the front room of Canada, the work faces a window that looks out to the street.

Helena Christensen discovered her early love of objects while growing up in the outskirts of Copenhagen. “I was digging in the dirt as a little girl, trying to find objects from the past, because we lived next to a potato field where there were actually objects from the Second World War, even from the ’30s, ’40s, ’50s. Little pots or dolls,” says the supermodel.
