This Friday, August 21, a show of recent mixed media works by contemporary artist Peter Tunney, who will be in attendance and signing books, will open with a festive reception from 6 to 9 pm in the Samuel Owen Gallery at 46 Centre Street.
It is difficult to separate the life and the work of Peter Tunney because in many ways they are one and the same. His work is a part of a bigger story spanning three decades, one that has taken him across the globe from the African savanna to Wall Street boardrooms. He has amassed a wealth of experiences: funny, harrowing, and infused with joy and tragedy. He has emerged as an artist with a message, boldly affirming Grattitude, Don’t Panic, The Time Is Always Now, Everything Is Going to Be Amazing, Today is the Day, I’m Busy for the Rest of My Life. His billboard project, primarily in New York City, is tangible proof.
