A dinner honoring internationally- known designer John-Paul Philippe, New York City, was held at the Untitled Gallery. Philippe was in town to look at the Gallery where he will have an exhibition in October. For his homecoming retrospective (he is from Oklahoma and graduated from the University of Oklahoma) he will make installations for the galleries, combining them with examples of his paintings, sculpture and murals. Among his works are the interiors for Barney’s stores worldwide.

Untitled Gallery executive director Jon Burris introduced the sculptor, John Paul Philippe, and he showed slides of his work. Burris also introduced Annie Bohanon, chairman of an October 13 opening event, and co-chairman Spencer Stone. Event committee members were also on hand for the party.
