Chanel Inc. was the first to recognize Peter Glebo's unique sense of visual artistry when they hired him in the art department as the assistant to the head of visual imagery. Mr. Glebo's sense of design and artistic composition was partially shaped during those two years helping design the images that Chanel used and working with the creative inspiration of the likes of Karl Lagerfeld and Gilles Defour.

When Tommy Tune hired Peter as his personal assistant, one of his reasons was to tap this creative potential and many of Mr. Glebo's artistic and theatrical ideas were incorporated into Mr. Tune's productions. Eventually this collaboration grew to include painting which they both share a passion for and photography, with Mr. Glebo having a uniquely privileged access to Mr. Tune's daily life. The results of this mutually inspiring collaboration were recognized this year in a joint art exhibit at New York's prestigious National Arts Club in Gramercy Park. The show was entitled "Seascapes and Sealegs". Earlier this year, Peter had a solo show at the Tribeca art gallery, "A Taste of Art", featuring his Silhouettes. More of his works are currently being displayed at two other Tribeca art spaces. Outside of New York, Peter and Tommy were recently invited to be showcased at The Beaver Creek Arts Festival in Colorado.

Their art dealer is presently working on plans for their art to be shown in Japan and Miami Beach, Florida. A book of Peter's photography of Mr. Tune's life is in the process of being assembled for publication in the near future.

I look at everything through the eyes of beauty.  I am intrigued by the simplest object.  A bottle, a blackened silhouette of a person.  I paint images of things I love.  I paint for my soul.  I have a studio in lower Manhattan just blocks from all the sadness.  I keep my windows wide open blasting Broadway show tunes and painting the night away.
