Reniel Del Rosario

Reniel Del Rosario (b. Iba, Philippines) uses ceramics, quantity, and satire to discuss themes of commodification and value. His projects range from interactive mimicries of consumer establishments to reimaginings of artifacts and imperfect copies of already-existing objects. He holds a BA in Art Practice from the University of California at Berkeley. He is a 2019 recipient of the Center for Craft’s Windgate-Lamar fellowship, a 2022 SFMOMA Artists Soapbox Derby racer, and has been featured in publications such as Artforum and Bon Appetit. His work has been exhibited internationally through traditional and alternative venues such as the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Jane Lombard Gallery, Meta Open Arts, and simply on the public sidewalk. In 2023, Del Rosario had a solo exhibition at Praise Shadows in Brookline, MA curated by Yng-Ru Chen.

In 2021, Catharine Clark Gallery featured Reniel Del Rosario’s solo presentation Exist Through The Gift Shop at a group exhibition titled Open Field. In 2023, Reniel’s work was included in a group show Sobremesa. Also in 2023, the gallery exhibited his solo presentation the Museum of Found Objects (MOFO) at Art Market San Francisco. Reniel Del Rosario’s work is featured through EXiT, the gallery’s art boutique.
