Ronny Quevedo Connects Sites of Cosmovisions at Krannert Art Museum

Ronny Quevedo's first institutional solo exhibition in the Midwest, "a l l s t a r s," has opened at the Krannert Art Museum in Champaign-Urbana. The show features works from the Ecuadorian-born, New York-based artist's recent past alongside a new site-driven installation, "a mother's hand" (2025), which incorporates objects from the museum's reinstalled Andean art collection. Using materials like wax, drywall, muslin, carbon paper, and gold-silver leaves, Quevedo creates abstract fields that evoke cartographies, constellations, dressmaking diagrams, and sports playbooks, weaving together autobiographical references to his seamstress mother and soccer-playing father with broader themes of cultural inheritance, duality, and cosmovisions.
