"LOOKING FOR ELSEWHERE" Gallery Show: Grandpa Sixten & Grandma Jenny

Grandpa Sixten & Grandma Jenny
They lived on 56th Street and 9th Avenue their whole life. Neither of them ever learned to drive a car. Born in Sweden and Norway, they met in a shoe store in Brooklyn. He affectionately called her a “monkey” and she called him “da volf”. They had pretty thick Scandinavian accents.
