Highly acclaimed actress, Linda Lavin, known widely for her hit '80s sitcom "Alice" followed by her "later life success" in a string of acclaimed Broadway performances, said just three weeks ago that she's determined to have her artist husband Steve Bakunas exhibit his lifelong anthology of portrait and landscape paintings, of which she's his favorite subject. Just last week, she got her wish when Bakunas hosted a private viewing of his body of work for the downtown art scene in the SoHo loft office of Nancy Trent. Scroll down for photos!
Lavin carved out the time to attend the event and support her husband, even in the midst of starring in Nicky Silver's "Too Much Sun," the new play which just had its world premiere.
This exhibit showcased an array of artwork, highlighting the places he has been and people he has met in his lifetime who inspired and molded him into the successful and fascinating man he is today. The exhibit featured subjects such as himself and his wife Linda, as well as a thoughtful perspective of places he has been including Paris, Cape Cod and Croatia.
