The Like A Virgin singer also was present for an art showcase her son Rocco Ritchie, 21, put on under the name Rhed.
The Open Your Heart artist was seen donning pigtails with her hair parted and a pair of black slacks on the outing, in which she posed in front of a number of his paintings.
Rhed is affiliated with the London-based London's Tanya Baxter Contemporary gallery website, Page Six reported in December.
A biography about Rhed on the gallery's website described him as 'a young emerging artist whose cultural background is diverse and unconventional,' noting that 'his childhood was spent between New York and London which [has] given him an eclectic and diverse artistic background.'
The description continued: 'Society conflicts such as the obsession with social media, fixation of celebrities & labels and generational problems such as drug abuse and depression are subjects that he approaches in a coded fashion.
'It is almost as if the artist uses the paintings to act as a spokesman for the millennial generation who have overdosed on a toxic society.'
