Taylor Means 'Business' in Atlanta





This is the 20-year-old multi-media artist who was Atlanta's "toast of the town" Thursday night. At least 100 people braved record cold temperatures to attend the "coming out" party at Inman Park's P'Cheen bistro for the humble, Keanu-esque Taylor Means.

Yours Truly (right) and renowned Chef Shawn Doty, who has a hand in the P'Cheen menu, among other major pieces of pie.





I'm no art authority, but I liked what I saw. Others did as well: Attendees had no qualms about whipping their checkbooks out on the spot and purchasing Means' pieces (priced at $240 each for the occasion) at first glance.














Money Bags: This Gucci-clutching chick was among 100 offered the first shot at buying Taylor Means originals for $240 apiece.

I'd really only ventured to P'Cheen (at social sherpa Caren West's last-minute request) out of curiosity. What goes on at this much-discussed hot spot just a stone's throw from my house? And what would people be wearing on such a frigid night?

Turns out: it was a dressed-down crowd. Props to Richard Shropshire for his Prada peacoat.








This cat's "Adult Swim" ski cap comes in handy.
