CRONIN’S ARRIVAL Hudson Valley artist Ryan Cronin made his entrance into the world, almost ironically, on a hot June night 1972: in the front seat of a ‘60s Plymouth Station Wagon. His daring arrival set the tone for his entire life. From a young age, Cronin’s father instilled in him the belief: You can be a garbageman. You can be the President. And so Cronin chose to be an artist, and he has filled two decades-worth of boards, suitcases, walls, and more with Rust-Oleum paint, the staple ingredient in his original and bold works of art. CRONIN’S PRACTICE Since the early 1990s Ryan has been approaching his practice from a place of inclusivity and cultural awareness. Engaging in a dialogue surrounding the accessibility of art, Ryan expands on the legacies of Robert Indiana, Philip Guston, and David Hockney. With his distinct signature style and a desire to assimilate icons from his New York community into a visual vocabulary, Ryan draws upon street signs and cultural markers as sources of inspiration. As a painter, sculptor, muralist, and product designer he appropriates text and figures from his surroundings to reconfigure the world through art. CronArtUSA - THE BRAND First came the artist.
