WE'RE EXCITED TO WELCOME YOU TO OUR ​FIRST EVENT OF THE 2022 SEASON!

A new solo exhibition by Thomas Ferraro, featuring paintings showing interior and exterior spaces where the point of view is clouded by split imagery and reflections. The artist explains, “These paintings are my instrument to connect my personal identity to our collective identity. They are my attempt to visualize our world from the inside out and the outside in.”

Tom Ferraro is a painter, teaching artist, and public art advocate living in Erie, Pennsylvania, and has a BFA in Painting from the University of Miami in Coral Gables, FL. He studied further at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, The Art Students League of New York, Erie Art Museum and Edinboro University.
“We live in a time when we have been challenged to navigate our lives, questioning not only past norms but also events that we witness with our own eyes, forcing us to see our world from two directions, from inside out and outside in. This collective experience is our shared reality and is the driving force for my work presented in this exhibition. I am fascinated by how we humans interact in both the natural and built environment. By placing figures in compartmental spatial compositions and heightened by text and color, my work explores the complexity and commonality of our human identity and questions assumptions of our divisive culture.”


Inside Out will be
​on exhibit until
Sunday, March 6.

In 2012, Tom cofounded The Looking Glass Art Project, a program designed to engage various community groups with visual stories and experiences from their lives, developed into public art projects. As a result of this work, themes in his personal studio work have broadened to include discourse on social issues such as global warming, racial and economic inequalities, gun violence and more. The Looking Glass Art Project has been involved in over twenty public art projects now on display in public buildings and outdoor spaces throughout Northwestern Pennsylvania. 
Ferraro has exhibited extensively throughout the region and his work resides in public, corporate, university, and private collections around the United States. Highlights of his exhibition record include over fifteen solo and two-person exhibits.
He had two solo museum exhibits at the Erie Art Museum, including his recent 2020-2021 exhibition “Safety Zone”. Ferraro has exhibited his work in exhibitions with the Associated Artists of Pittsburgh (AAP), including their annual exhibitions at the Carnegie Museum of Art, the Society for Contemporary Craft, the Westmoreland Museum of American Art, and most recently, at the Pittsburgh International Airport.  Tom has been a member of the AAP since 2005 and is also a member of the Northwestern Pennsylvania Artists Association, for which he has served as co-chair. Among other notable group shows, he has exhibited at The Hoyt Centre for the Arts, the Butler Museum of American Art, Mercyhurst University, Three Rivers Arts Festival, and the Grey Art Gallery at New York University.

Tom has won numerous awards for his work in various juried competitions. In 2012, he received the inaugural Bruce Morton Wright Artist of the Year award at the annual Fall for the Arts Awards presented by Erie Arts and Culture. In 2016, he was honored at the Erie School District’s annual Partnership for Public Education as a “PEPS Star” for his contribution to art education in the Erie school district. For more information, visit: tferraro.com.
