Something light and fluffy... “Easter Music,” ink and watercolor on paper was commissioned by #TheNewYorkTimes.
I’m leaving tomorrow for Istanbul, and I am super grateful for the invitation to exhibit my work at @schneidertempel. Thank you, gracias, tesekkuler @izel_rozental , and team!
Friends, if you -or anyone you know- will be in Istanbul, please join us for the opening reception on April 23, from 5 to 7pm It is free and open to all! I’ll also be happy to connect with any creatives in the area.
In New York City, my two solo shows continue on view: “Faces & Façades” at Morris-Jumel Museum (through May 26,) and my public art show “ImagiNATIONS” at Happy Warrior and Fredrick Douglas playgrounds, in collaboration with El Taller (through April.)

📣 Calling all artists! Applications are now open for the 2025-26 cycle of @NYCulture’s Public Artists in Residence (PAIR) program! The PAIR program embeds socially engaged artists in City agencies to utilize their collaborative art practice to offer innovative solutions to pressing civic challenges. The residency provides selected artists with $40,000 in funding. This year, artists working in all media may apply to work with the following host agencies.

Mayor’s Office of Housing Recovery Operations (HRO)
Since the Spring of 2022, over 230,600 asylum seekers and migrants have arrived in NYC seeking emergency shelter. HRO seeks an artist who can embed themselves within their Bruckner shelter in the Bronx and introduce the healing power of art to the 2,200 single adult men sheltered there, alongside services with the Mayor’s Office of Asylum Seekers Operations.

Mayor’s Public Engagement Unit (@MayorsPEU / PEU)
PEU was created to re-envision how the city provides services to its most vulnerable communities and to create new ways to better connect New Yorkers to government services. As the agency reflects on 10 years of work, they are looking for an artist to help strengthen PEU’s mission of connecting with NYC residents, sharing New Yorkers’ views and stories through public art and creative storytelling.

NYC Small Business Services (@NYCSmallBiz / SBS)
SBS recognizes the unique challenges faced by immigrant-owned businesses and hopes to increase the use of free services available at Workforce and Business Centers. SBS seeks an artist to reimagine how public spaces and service centers work together to form inclusive, vibrant hubs that reflect the communities they serve. SBS asks: How can storytelling strengthen the bond between immigrant communities and the services they need?

View the PAIR application page for more information, guidelines, and eligibility. The deadline to apply is Monday, June 30, 2025, at 11:59pm.

Hurry in! This is the last weekend to visit the exhibition “The Colorful World of Pancho Fierro, Afro-Peruvian Painter” at the Hispanic Society.

Drawing from the Hispanic Society’s collection of over 500 works by Fierro and his school, the largest such collection in existence, this exhibition invites viewers to experience the racially, ethnically, and economically diverse life of nineteenth-century Lima. As an Afro-Hispanic artist, Fierro not only imbued his figures with a subtle humanity that transcended the cultural stereotypes prevalent at the time, but he also forged a successful career that exemplifies the emerging economic opportunities available to people of all racial and ethnic backgrounds in post-Independence Peru.

If you are not able to make it in for the final weekend of the exhibition, visit the exhibition page on our website to hear the exhibition curator Dr. Marucs Burke discuss the works on display and what they tell us about daily life in nineteenth-century Lima.
