ANDRE SARAIVA – LOVE LETTERS \/ OPENING TO-NITE SAT FEB 11, 2012 \/ 6-8 PM
\nthe show runs FEB 11 – MARCH 1, 2012
\nHALF GALLERY<\/a> – 208 FORSYTHE – LOWER EAST SIDE, NYC<\/p>\n

ANDRE SARAIVA aka Mr. A is a bonafide celeb street artist, nightlife & hotel impresario, pop-up fashion designer, and even, now it seems a short filmmaker, and his star: LEO FITZPATRICK no less . . . growing up in France, he has been bombing Paris with his trademark Mr. A – since the mid 1980s. although he can’t do that any more, (at least there !! so watch out everywhere else) cause he’s under probation . . . his whimsical trademark stick figure with the hat – seems to have secretly delighted the French while at the same time they wanted to keep their historic streets, somewhat clean and decent. talk about a “conundrum” !! <\/p>\n

but his .. . picturesque & winningly romantic tag was just like the pink panther – it hit a cultural nerve – and there was no going back.<\/p>\n

In NYC nightlife circles he might be better known as the man who put the “B” in Bain, as in, at the hot celeb hang-out THE STANDARD. in the international art fair circles – he might be better known as the guy behind the popular and ever hip LE BARON pop-up nightclubs. his best friend ? OLIVIER ZAHM of PURPLE. and his current GF: ANNABELLE DEXTER JONES, you know, the little half sister of the amazin’ RONSONS. so I guess he’s the reigning King of all internet searches, who wants to take back his street crown, before everyone forgets – from whence it all started.<\/p>\n
