Haling from the Bronx with roots in the Dominican Republic, artist-brother
duo Felix and Dexter Ciprián work in art, photography, performance and film.
They began their joint venture in 2007 at the annual Deitch Art Parade in
SoHo with a piece that was part performance, part sculpture, part event.
Since then, their work has been an ongoing effort in the breaking down of
labels and categories. They have been featured in The New York Times,
New York Magazine, ArtNet Magazine; their latest collaboration “Se Acerca
Un Ciclon”, premiered at BAX (Brooklyn Arts Exchange) in March of 2011.
Their upcoming exhibition, “Felix & Dexter Present: FELIX & DEXTER” will
open on November 21st at the Angel Orensanz Foundation.
“...rather than rage against the machine, they prefer to hack their own futures...” - New York Magazine
"I liked the works by Bronx-born artist brothers Felix & Dexter. These works were comic, smart, strangely affecting, and nicely summed up a certain authentic insider-outsider art hope." - Artnet Magazine
“...they are big, big, big in spirit... they’re thumbing their noses at conventional roles! They’re out with the old and in with the new!” - Kickstarter Blog
