GalleryBeat TV

GalleryBeat TV was a public access television show covering the art scene in New York City from 1993 to 2003.[1] The show was hosted by Paul Hasegawa-Overacker[2] (also known as Paul H-O). The show, which produced over 130 episodes, covered art openings in Manhattan art galleries by speaking with gallery-goers and talking to artists, including Julian Schnabel, who said on camera that the show was "idiotic.[3]" The show also featured cooking segments, an interview with The New York Times art critic Roberta Smith, Brice Marden,[3] Spencer Tunick, recorded street protests by the Guerrilla Girls and a visit to the Gramercy Art Fair. The show was noted for having "a gonzo, nobody’s-watching-anyway spirit[4]" and one of the goals of GalleryBeat TV was to question the art beyond "whatever’s in the press release."[3] New York artist Walter Robinson was also a correspondent for the show.

Documentary

The show was turned into a documentary film made in 2008[2] called Guest of Cindy Sherman, where Paul H-O documents his life as the boyfriend of New York artist Cindy Sherman. The film has been called "a requiem for a time before big money ruined the art world."
