Peter Glebo Gallery is pleased to present Longnecks, an exhibition of large-scale, acrylic-on-canvas portraits of giraffes by Broadway legend Tommy Tune. Opening on Thursday, June 3 and running through Sunday, August 29, the exhibition will serve as the new Chelsea gallery's inaugural exhibition. This exhibition is made possible, in part, by the generous support of Playbill.

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.
Gallery hours are Thursday from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM,
Friday and Saturday from 11:00 AM to 5:30 PM, and
 Sunday from 12:00 PM to 5:30 PM.


"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.

Lithographs of a handpicked selection of Tune's other artwork will also be available for sale.
