December 20, 2022 ![](craft%5Celements%5Cdb%5CElementQuery) ![](/assets/ronald_feldman_images/Ronald-Feldman-1938-2022.jpg) Photo: Peggy Kaplan In Memoriam A passionate proponent of the arts and freedom of expression, art dealer Ronald Feldman passed away peacefully on December 20, 2022, at the age of 84. Ron was deeply dedicated to family, friends, and artists from around the globe. He is survived by his wife, Frayda Feldman, and children Mark and Nikki Feldman, Andy and Lisa Feldman and Julie Golovcsenko, and grandchildren Ethan, Charlotte, Jonah, Sam, Nathan, Lucas, Warren, and Roxanne. Ron was born in the Bronx and grew up in Long Beach, New York. After earning degrees from Syracuse University and NYU Law School, he co-built with Frayda and led the Ronald Feldman Gallery in New York City. Ron spoke the language of art and believed in its power to convey timeless messages and spiritual truths. He was a champion of big ideas. In the span of 50 years, the Feldman Gallery exhibited the work of over 1,000 artists, providing powerful commentary on the societal issues of our time. Throughout the 1980s, he collaborated with Andy Warhol to conceptualize and publish iconic portfolios of prints and paintings, including Ten Portraits of Jews of the Twentieth Century, Myths, Ads, and Endangered Species. Ron was active in politics for over 30 years and galvanized the power of the art world to drive change. Appointed by President Clinton, Ron served as a member of the National Council on the Arts and on the boards of People for the American Way, Creative Capital, the Art Dealers Association of America, and The New School’s Vera List Center for Art and Politics, among many others. Ron was an impassioned collaborator, coach, and leader that made everyone feel part of a movement. He fostered a community built on deep-rooted values and was a fearless visionary of a better world. Although Ron retired from what he loved in 2019, the Ronald Feldman Gallery continues to honor and advance his legacy.
