You can’t learn to Love someone.
…Vladivostok… the lonely forgotten port empire sitting on the End of Nowhere. Who are you? You vex my dreams and nightmares.
If I could get there in a minute and get back in 2 minutes, I would stay for 3 minutes. A point on the way to another destination. What’s down there, what does it feel like?
You’ve been forgotten by Everyone. Except for those who make the trip to the Edge of the World. I can’t get You out of my mind. And I want to forget you.

Striptease Burlesque at Gallery EF
Tuesday, January 26th, 2010..June 2007.. ..New York to Tokyo..
..It’s noon on Sunday. I can’t get my mind off that’s it’s midnight on the Edge of The World.
My exhibition is closing as I stare at an elderly pot bellied Russian man jump into the blue water across the pool. 2 years worth of work exhibited in one short month.

Where Ya Been?
When Paule Saviano was growing up, he wanted to become a bike messenger. We’re glad he didn’t succeed.
At the ripe old age of 11, Saviano took up the camera and never put it down again. He took on every kind of work he could get, but settled into music photography for a long time, touring with Porno For Pyros, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins and a number of other bands until he grew tired of shooting more Stratocasters than people.
But in his show entitled “Striptease Burlesque” Saviano displays his portrait work, and it is here that he shines. The show has a little of both the striptease and the burlesque, and the photos have a wonderfully gritty gloss. All are portraits of models in various states of dress and undress, and in various locations. On his website, Saviano calls his photos a record of where he has been in his life, and those places range from street corners to bedrooms to dimly-lit stages. His colors and images call to mind the bubbles under bright red nail polish, the texture of a velvet curtain. And the wooden sanctuary of Gallery éf should make for a very interesting juxtaposition.
