Paolo Arao
Jeff Bailey Gallery
511 W 25th StJeff Bailey Gallery is pleased to present Paolo Arao’s second exhibition at the gallery, Intermission.
John and Paolo and Patrick and Dennis went on a weekend road trip to the Catskills. The drive took far longer than they'd thought it would, but despite various mishaps along the way they had a good time. By the time they arrived at the cottage, all four were faint with hunger. Of course, restaurants are scarce and close early in small Catskill towns, so they cooked what they could find at the Stewart's convenience store in the next town over. The meal came out marvelously. Microwave pizza, ice cold beer, and even a six-pack of Smirnoff Ice!
The four decided to have a party. They sang songs and danced and drank and got very drunk.
Paolo Arao and John Miserendino recorded the trip with digital video and disposable cameras. The document of the events from the trip produced Intermission.
On view will be an installation of graphite drawings by Paolo Arao, photographs and a video collaboration by John Miserendino and Paolo Arao.
