(b. 1991, Boston, MA)
Lives and works in New York City, NY

Joey Gonnella’s practice centers around works on paper and paintings that reveal a personal relationship to the history of images. Gonnella uses a personal archive of found imagery and art historical references to create research-based works that create a constellation of relationships among one another. Connecting disparate elements of the past with the present is a recurring theme throughout.

Gonnella received a BFA in Visual and Critical Studies from the School of Visual arts in 2020 and his MFA from Hunter College in 2024. He has exhibited work in group exhibitions in New York City at Charles Moffett Gallery, Rain Rain Gallery, Klaus von Nichtssagend Gallery, and Parent Company. Gonnella is also an adjunct professor at the School of Visual Arts.
