The bar at the historic Gramercy Park Hotel has always been a favorite of mine. Nicknamed 'the Glamercy" by David Bowie in the '70's, the hotel has a long and storied past. Always a favorite of the music industry, the Gramercy also has an impressive art collection including this collaboration in the background of my painting by Warhol and Basquiat ("hand" 1984/85) hanging at the bar. With the hotel currently shuttered by the pandemic, I am thrilled to have captured this fleeting moment in its history.
