Coming to the Mary Boone Gallery at 745 Fifth Avenue on Sept. 8 is artist Luis Gispert's Deception exhibition. The photos are artifacts of logo and brand obsessed people throughout the country, who have done things like decked their car out in Coach C's and somehow obtained a bedspread that says Versace on it. There are also some very special outfits—like the Dolce and Gabbana one to the right—included in the exhibition. [Racked National]
