CJF is an artist whose experimental paintings, drawings, collages and sculptures blur the line between subject and object. Slyly referencing and revealing the process of its own making, the work engages a variety of social, political, and cultural issues. Currently he is at work on an autobiographical project called the Black Album. Born in Vineland, NJ, a farming town, Ferrero now resides in NYC. He has had solo exhibitions at Feature Inc., Vox Populi, Envoy Enterprises, Saint Anthony's Basement, and Kathleen Cullen Fine Arts. His work has been included in exhibitions at the Bronx Museum of the Arts, Artists Space, The Elizabeth Foundation, Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions, Exile in Berlin, and Artenova in Italy. Ferrero received his MFA from Brooklyn College in 2006, and has been awarded a Pollock Krasner Foundation grant, and fellowships from the Millay Colony, the AIM program, the Foundation for Contemporary Arts and the Gowanus Studio Space.
