We ran into cultural critic and poet, Wayne Koestenbaum, outside the Gagosian Gallery in Chelsea. As he is an expert of humiliation, he didn’t mind posing for us. From his new book on the topic: “Humiliation is a kiln through which the human soul passes, and where it receives burnishing, glazing, and consolidating. Humiliation cooks the spirit to a fine finish.”
