THE YEAR'S BEST


Hedi Slimane went art, Q-Tip brought it back, Metallica was reborn, Tricky reconfirmed, T.I. made me love Atlanta again, Olafur Eliasson reinvented nature, Daniel Day-Lewis proved he is the best actor of the latter part of the 20th century, Interview was redesigned, Isaac Hayes will be missed, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly enlightened, Paul Newman will be revered, Jil Sander went marble, Air Jordan ended an era, Lebron continued an era, A.P.C. is built to last, Federer to be continued, The Dark Knight broke records, Daniel Craig courtesy of Tom Ford brought it, Portishead reiterated their relevance, The Verve regrouped, Kanye West killed it, Takashi Murakami copyrighted it, Elizabeth Peyton became new, Anna Ternheim deserves more listens, Marilyn Minter became street, Church's always classic, Kehinde Wiley Baroque it, and Ryan McGinely showed youth is here for change.
