Keys to the Door: Owner Kenny Goss

What's Hot to Hang:
The newest addition to Dallas' on-fire gallery scene, opening March 20, is the pet project of Dallas-London habitué Kenny Gooss. Texas native Goss and his partner, Mr. Wham, George, Michael, have been collecting contemporary art for several years, and after dividing time between London and Dallas, the couple brought a home in Dallas. The modern gallery, an extension of their love for art, focuses on 20th- 21st-century contemporary photography and paintings. The worldly the ex-beau of lovelies Claudia Shiffer, Elle Macphrson and Kylie Minogue) and his highly landed Hamiltons Gallery in London consults and serves as curator for exhibitions. Hamiltons gallery manager Filippo Tattoni-Marcozzi (he's the charmer who's advising Queen Rania of Jordan on artists to produce pieces for her new place in Amma) bounces back and forth across the Atlantic to direct Goss. After browsing the collections take a look at the gallery's bookshop, with essential, must-have art books. Goss Gallery's inaugural exhibition? A large-scale photographic retrospective by over-the-top fashion photographer David LaChapelle.
