Peter Glebo Gallery was founded on the notion that artistic
talent is not specific to any one area of expression; an artist
who is brilliant in one medium can use that same talent in
another. To encourage this "transference of talent," longtime
Art Director Peter Glebo has designated his gallery space for
well-known performers to exhibit their visual art.
Peter Glebo Gallery is located at 526 West 26th, Suite 318.
the Gallery is Temporarily Closed
From the
Back on 26th Street, celebrity and art meet without
religion: The inaugural show at Peter Glebo Gallery, in the
West Chelsea Arts Building, is a series of giraffe paintings
by dancer Tommy Tune.
Mr. Glebo, who was Mr. Tune's personal assistant, has also
worked as an artist. (Full disclosure: About six years ago,
I bought one of his paintings.)
He's now moved on to running a gallery devoted to artwork
made by celebrities. Mr. Glebo is looking for individuals
who cross boundaries: "Maybe they won an Academy Award, but
they also paint. My dream would be Joan Rivers."
