Gersh (1943-1994) worked in many styles and mediums with an intensity and expressionistic quality that truly defined his subjects. Whether assemblage, painting, drawing, printmaking, or an amalgamation of them all, Gersh managed to have an easily discernible style.Many of his iconic works are derived from this time period. 
 
Former Questa resident and collector Singer says of this time, "Bill landed in an industrial loft in the midst of the lower West Side meatpacking district. It was a rough and tumble neighborhood, but Bill held out for survival. Most of my Gersh collection is from this New York period of 1983-84. A favorite spot for me was the Reggae Lounge. I'd visit Bill after a day at the office, check out the pieces he was working on, and we'd head over and dance to whatever the reggae DJ was spinning." Georgia said several pieces in the Singer collection were influenced by this comical duo of white Jewish boys dancing in New York.
