With assistants milling around him, Julian Schnabel looked like he was directing a movie. The painter who is also a filmmaker was walking through the south wing of MOCA's Geffen Contemporary last week calling out requests.
FOR THE RECORD: An article in Saturday's Calendar section on an exhibit of the artwork of the late actor Dennis Hopper said that Jeffrey Deitch, the director of the Museum of Contemporary Art, where the exhibit is being held, became the godfather of Hopper's son Henry. Julian Schnabel, the curator of the exhibit, is Henry's godfather.
"Could you clear out these boxes so we have a better view?" asked Schnabel, who is known for having a rather commanding presence even in a bathrobe, but on this day wore track pants and a plaid shirt.
