Frederic Lere and Nathalie Leroy, New York.
Story:
I
gave this painting to my friend and partner muralist Frederic Lere,
who had loaned me his South Beach apartment for a while. On one
sleepless night, I undertook this painting, in Frederic's studio
overlooking the busy nightclub street below. Pouring liquid paint
through the canvas, I quickly arranged a jungle scene. Then, at dawn,
although tired, and observing from my window the remnants of the
homeward bound nocturnal partygoers. I painted in the ceilings fans
wobbling for cover.
