See ProxyPass directive here.  It tells how to exclude resources.  Make sure 
you read the part about properly ordering your ProxyPass statements too.

  https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass

In your htdocs (i.e. DocumentRoot) folder.  Exactly where under that folder 
just depends on where your application expects it.  If your app stores static 
resources under a "static" folder (i.e. /static/images/...) then you'd just 
create that folder structure under the htdocs folder.
