Working alongside their father, David Zwirner—the German art dealer and owner of galleries in New York, London, Hong Kong, and Paris—Lucas and Marlene Zwirner are, intentionally or not, making “Zwirner” synonymous with “downtown.” They throw art parties, are friends with the New York novelist Joshua Cohen, and recently became the lead funders of The Drift, the literary magazine Lucas occasionally writes for.
Live performances of Blood Orange, an R&B-and-electronic-music project, consist of Dev Hynes, a guitar, and a laptop. The English-born, New York–based singer is also a songwriter, record producer, and director who has collaborated with artists including Solange Knowles, FKA twigs, A$AP Rocky, Blondie, Philip Glass, and Mariah Carey. But it’s his soaring, symphonic scores—and his work ethic—that have set him apart.
