John “SohoJohnny” Pasquale from Peprealestate.com showed up to artist TATY’s “Portrait of Freedom” Art Exhibit on October 14, 2023 wearing a bedazzled designer leather jacket, spiked shoes and his always unusual chapeau.

His image shared the walls with Jim Morrison, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, Adam Ant, Freddie Mercury, and many others. Along with celebrities there were paintings of SohoJohnny’s inner circle, Billy Hess, Errol Rappaport, Lorraine Cancro, and others. There was also a special presentation given by TATY to anchor woman, correspondent and best-selling author Rita Cosby and her producer husband Tomaczek Bednarek, a portrait of the two together.
Those who also celebrated TATY’s vision were actress, singer, producer Quinn Lemly, best-selling author, TV presenter and musician UK’s John Robb, Show host Mickey Burns from Profiles with Mickey Burns, studio 54 PR icon Queen of the Night, Black Tie Magazine, Louder Than War Magazine, Splash Magazine, Rock NYC, Lisa White from the Mayor’s office, Global Biz Magazine, Entertainer King Melvin Brown, and good will ambassador Errol Rappaport just to mention a few.
