Peter Gric @ QCC

Gynoid III by Peter Gric as it appeared at the QCC Art Gallery in 2012

Peter Gric was one of a number of prominent artists to display their work in the Visionaries exhibit that appeared at the QCC Art Gallery a few summers ago. As should be no surprise, his reputation for skill and creativity has continued its upward ascent. Perhaps someday his work will visit with us again.

Rufino De Mingo's Transformed Bodies

Expressionist Rufino de Mingo Escariche was born in Spain, but his internationally inspired art has appeared worldwide, including places like Madrid, San Juan, Paris, Buenos Aires, and Brussels.

Let his art take you on a journey. Come see his work on the second floor landing of the QCC Art Gallery.

It won't be with us long. So get over there today!

Rufino De Mingo

Spanish artist Rufino de Mingo Escariche is an Expressionist painter, sculptor and printmaker, who often emphasizes social themes in his work. He is also a collaborator in the NGO, Artists Without Frontiers.

His work can be seen at the Spanish Museum of Contemporary Art in Madrid, Campiñas Museum in Brazil, Okinawa Museum in Japan, Lima Art Museum in Peru, and is now on display on the second floor at the QCC Art Gallery in Bayside, Queens.

First People's Art

The Alaskan Inuit’s daily life, their belief system, their traditions and rituals were intimately bound to the land, the sea and the animals they hunted, and all are reflected in the objects they created.

The Carving Life exhibition at the QCC Art Gallery showcases the art of Inuit carvers from St. Lawrence Island in the Bering Sea and other communities along the northwest coast of Alaska.

This art, created and fashioned out of walrus ivory or bone, is part of the ongoing narrative of the Alaskan Inuit. Come experience their story when it appears at the QCC Art Gallery.

Meet Eshu at the QCC Art Gallery

Like so many other trickster gods, Eshu is often depicted as a messenger between the gods and people. He also carries up to heaven the sacrifices that people offer to the gods.

But he is not consider a trickster of the Yoruba people of Nigeria in West Africa for nothing, for Eshu, also known as Elegba or Legba, is unpredictable, sly, and fond of pranks that can be cruel and disruptive.

And you can meet this dastardly fellow face-to-face, when he appears at the QCC Art Gallery.
