“We’ll just have to commiserate about the Eagles’ chances this year,” Mr. Holt said. Guests were seated at long tables for dinner — burrata and branzino — topped with flowers and cans of La Croix, which was one of the event’s sponsors. The comedian and actor Mae Martin shared a table with Eriona Hysolli, a scientist who is overseeing efforts to reintroduce the extinct woolly mammoth in Siberia. “There is an inherent ranking that comes with a list, which I feel, like, is always difficult to wrap your mind around when you’re talking about art,” he said. Mr. Torres said he turned preparation for the evening “into a project” by making an outfit, which included a pointy gold hat with a matching gold jacket and a blue tie around his waist.
