Dealer Pietro Alexander Marries Artist Sara Apple in SoHo Gallery Wedding Show
Pietro Alexander celebrated the launch of his new SoHo gallery by marrying artist Sara Apple just thirty minutes prior to the debut of 'The Wedding Show.' This exhibition, which draws inspiration from Tiny Tim's 1969 wedding to Miss Vicki on The Tonight Show that captivated 45 million viewers, delves into themes of performed intimacy. Featured artists include West Coast talents like Billy Al Bengston, Ken Price, and John Altoon, along with New Yorkers Cristine Brache, Ryan Brown, Jaxon Demme, and Tallulah Dirnfeld. For CULTURED, both artists and wedding attendees shared insights on creative partnerships. Notable advice included Laddie John Dill and Pamela Barish's suggestion for a California king bed and Kay Kasparhauser's mention of her partner Daniel Arnold's New York Times crosswords since June 2011.
