Rufus: It's complicated, isn't it?
Bex Simon: I can't stop staring at it. It's difficult work. I mean that in the best way. It's enigmatic. It reminds me of an early Bacon, or Schnabel.
Rufus: The artist is in Hudson. I've represented her, for some time. Rufus.
Bex Simon: Bex Simon. I've heard a lot about your gallery. I wasn't expecting a piece like this, from a former rock star.
Rufus: I prefer "one-hit wonder".
Bex Simon: What turned you gallerist?
Rufus: I've always had artistic pursuits.
Bex Simon: We have something in common. I always pursue artists. I've been in Brooklyn all day looking for work for a client. I'm a buyer. I didn't think I'd find a piece like this. And I don't think it'll be here long. I'd like to put it on hold. May I?
Rufus: Yeah, of course.
Bex Simon: What time do you close?
Rufus: I’ll stay open.
Bex Simon: Good. Thank you.
