Adrien Brody, the Artist, Loves Face Swap and Erykah Badu

Hundreds of artists may have showed in New York this Frieze week, but it’s safe to bet that Adrien Brody was the only one with an Academy Award. Still, with his ambitious exhibit “Hooked” at Art New York, Brody’s hardly a fish out of water: It marked his second series of paintings, which stretch up to nine feet wide and depict a diverse array of marine life, including suicidal Starbucks mermaids. The fair closes today, but don’t fret if you missed it; when it comes to Brody’s projects, there are plenty more fish in the sea, starting with Manhattan Night, the film he starred in and produced coming out later this month. Between all that, he took time to share his culture diet, here.
