Brant pubs booted by landlord

BILLIONAIRE Peter M. Brant seems to be having a little trouble paying the rent this month. We’re exclusively told that the staff at Brant Publications — his business that owns the legendary Interview magazine, as well as a set of art titles — were booted from their swank Soho offices this week because the landlords haven’t been getting their checks from Brant. “Marshals showed up and just kicked everyone out,” we’re told. But sources say that the magazines — including Antiques and Art in America, as well as Web site ArtNews and the famed Interview, which was founded by Andy Warhol in 1969 — aren’t forever doomed. They’ll be back up and running as soon as the missing money is coughed up, we are assured. In a statement, Brant’s daughter and president of Interview, Kelly Brant, told Page Six: “We have been working with the landlord on resolving differences regarding a new short-term lease agreement at 110 Greene St., which we hope will be completed soon. In the long term, Brant Publications will be moving to another space later this year.” It’s unclear what’s causing the kerfuffle, but it seems unlikely that the paper-production heir is short on money. Brant — whose colorful sons with model Stephanie Seymour, Harry and Peter Jr., have become notorious on the party scene — has a legendary art collection that includes what Artspace once called a “massive trove of Warhols” as well as works by Jeff Koons, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Francesco Clemente. They’re housed at the Brant Foundation in Greenwich, Conn.
