Peter Gallo: Goodbye Picasso

Freight + Volume, New York

In the tradition of punk, neo-punk, Lettrism and Situationism, Gallo steals the words and images of others for his own ends; snippets from Roland Barthes, Freud, Mondrian, Tony Shafrazis and queer pornography – all turn up on occasion, mixed in with lyrics gleaned from Gallos favorite music: The Cocteau Twins, Dusty Springfield, The Magnetic Fields, or Joy Division. The artist seemingly apathetic brushstroke across a found object or yard sale painting conveys something ultimately profound and positive.
