D Train, 1979
D Train is autobiographical that’s how I traveled from Brooklyn to Manhattan when I ran the AICH Gallery first on 38th Street later in SOHO.
Threading the Needle in Black, White, and Red, 1997
Threading the Needle with the Red White and Black comes from a visit Aotearoa (New Zealand) continuing my relationship with Maori artists and writers.
“Having a booth at the Armory Show is something I never imagined and yet it is real. This show is an opportunity to present a wide range of my artwork in New York City. The Convention Center is blocks from my first New York studio in 1968. It was located at 10th Avenue and 38th Street in Hell’s Kitchen that was a different time I was 23 years old.." - G. Peter Jemison, August 12th, 2023, Victor, NY.
