Artist Website

Ronny Quevedo works in a variety of mediums including sculpture and drawing.  Quevedo received his MFA from the Yale School of Art in 2013 and BFA from The Cooper Union in 2003. He has had several solo exhibitions including no hay medio tiempo / there is no halftime, Queens Museum (2017),  Home Field Advantage, Casita Maria Center for Arts & Education, Bronx, New York (2015), and Ulama, Ule, Olé, Carol Jazzar Gallery, Miami (2013). He is a recipient of a Queens Museum/Jerome Foundation Fellowship for Emerging Artists and A Blade of Grass Fellowship for Socially Engaged Art.

Ronny Quevedo’s artistic practice is an examination of the vernacular languages and aesthetic forms generated by displacement, migration, and resilience.  Inspired by his own family history and migration, Quevedo transcribes the graphics of locality, community,  and remembered environments directly into his work. Lines and markings from basketball and indoor futbol courts, freehand signage, and milk crates are just a few of the forms that find their way into Quevedo’s transcriptions; allowing  the work to simultaneously  serve as an homage to the narratives of historically marginalized peoples, and a platform for dialogue and community engagement on continued practices of marginalization.
