My days of life's agony are gone
and all my sorrow of the past
If we should ever meet again some day
I will always have the spirit of my art
Thank God at last
Chelsea mornings coming to an end?
SIMON HOUPT
From Monday’s Globe and Mail / Canada
Globe/ August 13, 2007
On a muggy afternoon last week, Chicago painter Susan Olmetti crouched on a sidewalk along West 23rd Street and applied some swirls to a pop art canvas she’d popped up against a long-shuttered storefront. A hand full of completed pieces stood drying in the summer haze. Olmetti has spent the last couple of months on this stretch of sidewalk just west of Seventh Avenue, using it as a handy combination of studio and salesroom. “It’s euphoric,” she explained. “Being in the street, with people.”
Nobody takes much notice of such things in this part
of town, for a few feet to the right of Olmetti lay the entrance to
her temporary home: the Hotel Chelsea, the dotty dowager that has housed
thousands of artists since the middle of the last century.
