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

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."




"I PAINT LONG AND TALL. I CHAMPION LARGE PAINTINGS IN SMALL SPACES. 
THEY EXTEND THE HORIZONS OF A ROOM. TO  SUGGEST THE VAST, TO OPEN
A WINDOW TO THE WORLD, TO OFFER AN EXPANDED FEELING IN A CONTRACTED ENVIROMENT
IS WHAT ONLY ART CAN ACHIEVE. LIGHT, COLOR AND COMPOSITION SHOULD FILL THE ENTIRE PROSCENIUM. IT'S WHY MURALS WERE CREATED."

Tune's collection of giraffe portraits perfectly exhibits both the artist's trademark gracefulness and his unique sense of whimsy.
