Other details: A-listers took in the art on Saturday as Robert Wilson and The Watermill Center hosted 'Fly Into The Sun,' the 24th annual Watermill Center Summer Benefit and Auction. This year, the event was presented by Van Cleef & Arpels, and honored Laurie Anderson and Isabelle Huppert in tribute to the late, great Lou Reed. Robert Downey Jr., Maxwell Osborne, and Elsa Hosk were among the 1200 guests taking in the magical scene, which featured works by Jenny Holzer, Rachel Frank, Christopher Knowles, and Xu Zhen. After dinner, guests, dressed in their best "dark shiny matter," partied the night away with the help of DJ Flat White (a.k.a. Virgil Abloh).
