PETER FAGUNDO

Peter Fagundo (American, b. 1971 in St. Cloud, Minnesota) lives and works in Chicago.

For the past two decades, Fagundo has defined and redefined an approach to painting that explores the medium’s ever-changing role as both a networked form of public communication and a method by which one continual discovers themselves. A graduate of the School Of The Art Institute of Chicago, Fagundo was a founding member of the now defunct Wicker Park project space called The Pond, along with fellow students David Coyle, Jeff Ward, and Howard Fonda. In the those years, the early 2000s, Fagundo regularly exhibited with gallerist Shane Campbell’s curatorial project called Boom, as well as his eponymous gallery space in the city’s South Loop.
