'''Peter Reginato''' (born August 19, 1945), is an American abstract [[sculpture|sculptor]] and painter.

Reginato was born in [[Dallas, Texas]], but grew up in the hills outside [[Oakland, California]], attending the [[San Francisco Art Institute]] from 1963 to 1966<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.theartstudentsleague.org/instructor/peter-reginato/|title=Peter Reginato – The Art Students League|work=The Art Students League|access-date=2018-03-29|language=en-US}}</ref>. He began making abstract sculpture in 1965 and moved to New York City in 1966 to pursue his career as a sculptor. In 1967 he was included in several group exhibitions including showing a major piece at the [[Park Place Gallery]] in New York City.

== Career ==
During his early career he was represented by the [[Tibor de Nagy Gallery]] and was associated with the [[Park Place Gallery]]. In 1970 and then again in 1973, he was included in the [[Whitney Museum of American Art]]'s Biennial.


== Biography ==
Following this early success, Reginato continued to show his large sculptural works in over 60 solo and group exhibitions. He was represented for a long period by the Heidi Cho Gallery, and his work was in several exhibitions with them, including one with fellow painter [[Ronnie Landfield]]. At this time, Reginato became known for his large, welded steel sculptures. He experimented with painting and not painting his works, exploring color and texture and form, culminating in his eventual transition into painting in 2015, as revealed by an exhibition at Adelson Galleries in New York, written about by [http://hyperallergic.com/author/john-yau/ John Yao] of [[Hyperallergic]], [[David Cohen (art critic)|David Cohen]] of [http://www.artcritical.com/ Artcritical], and [[James Panero]] of [http://www.supremefiction.com/theidea/2015/06/this-week-peter-reginato.html Supreme Fiction]. Reginato committed to his large, brightly painted enamel paintings, showing a new series of them at an exhibition at the [[Wally Findlay Galleries|Findlay Galleries]] in New York in 2017.
Reginato was born on August 19, 1945, in [[Dallas, Texas]], and grew up in [[Berkeley, California]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Ferraro |first=Tom |date=2017-11-13 |title=Column: Artist offers levity to commuters in Mineola - The Island Now Entertainment |url=https://islandnow.net/column-artist-offers-levity-commuters-mineola/ |access-date=2024-04-01 |website=The Island Now |language=en-US}}</ref><ref name=":0" /> He attended the [[San Francisco Art Institute]], from 1963 to 1966.<ref name=":0">{{Cite book |last= |first= |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=sK9NAAAAYAAJ |title=Peter Reginato, 1994: April 1 Through April 30, 1994 |date=1994 |publisher=Adelson Galleries |pages=1984 |language=en |type=exhibition |via=Google Books}}</ref>


After his first successful solo show in 1966 at the Open Theatre Gallery in Berkeley, where he showed mostly paintings, he decided he wanted to be a sculptor. He moved to New York City later that same year. In 1970 and in 1973, his work was included in the [[Whitney Biennial]].{{citation needed|date=July 2022}}
Currently, Reginato lives and works in SoHo, and teaches at The [[Art Students League of New York]].
