Parker is well known throughout the community for his activism and advocacy of gay rights, and as a former community liaison for Assemblymember Deborah Glick, before taking over the post at NYU late last summer. Schneiders collection of portraiture, landscape, still life and trompe loeil paintings will stay on display for the remainder of the month at the Chelsea gallery.
