Ramon Trif Productions & Gallery Premieres

Est. 2011 · New York City

Ramon Trif Productions

The Gallery Premieres — eleven nights of art, fire, graffiti, neon and monsters.

Since 2011

Ramon Trif formed Ramon Trif Productions in January 2011 as a platform for New York City’s up-and-coming artists — a chance to be part of a professionally curated gallery show, with little to no submission fee.

The deal was simple: produce high-quality artwork, help promote the show, and contribute as a team — and you’re in. Ramon built it to teach discipline and a real, practical approach to pursuing an art career.

The Next Act

Ramon sees the present and future of art in the traditional gallery setting — but taken to the next level with his own touch. The new vision: Cinematic Gallery Movies.

Planned for 2020, then paused by the pandemic. The plans are back in motion — updates coming soon.

The End That Never Came
12.12.12 · The Dumbo Spot · Brooklyn, NY
December 2012 marked “The End of the World,” so apocalyptic artist Ramon Trif closed out the era with a showing that asked: what is The End? Spoiler alert: we’re all still here. From a fiery finale emblazoning the number 12, to the epic Paint-Off Battle between Ramon Trif & Alex Reynoso, to our Fire and Earth Femme Fatales sizzling down the runway — it was an End to remember for the ages.

Sexpose

All the Rules, Painted Over
Dramatics NYC · 1488 3rd Avenue
A hot, libido-raising night where all the rules were painted over. Wear anything, feel anything, be with anyone. Art was as free as desire and lust. The drinks were cold and our eyes were filled with fire — a memorable soirée with scintillating results.

NY Comic Con

A Booth of My Own
Jacob K. Javits Center · New York · 2014
To think that I was at Comic Con with my own art company’s personal booth — quite the dream come true. Not a dream that I had, but one that found me in this waking life. I dressed up as The Ultimate Warrior, Darth Maul, and crazy ol’ Ramon Trif himself. When the stars and the sun and the moon align…

Beauty Embodied

A Summer Soirée
Upper East Side, NYC
The fastest show I have ever curated — it took me less than a week to design, promote and gather the guests and performers. What a turnout it was! I even became an honorary Mariachi.

Shades of New

We Fall Only to Be Reborn
A Fall Showing
A fall showing symbolizing the turning of the season — the change within us that reflects the hues of life, and of struggle. Together we expressed through art, music, visuals and poetry what it all means to us, where we came from, and where we’re going from here. Like leaves upon a tree, we fall only to be reborn anew and start all over.
Rest in Peace, B.I.E.R.

MONSTER

NYC’s Halloween Art Extravaganza
Presented by A.R.K. · Dumbo, Brooklyn
Halloween has always been Ramon Trif’s favorite holiday — the creativity, the chance to become a character other than the one you pretend to be all year. His art group at the time, A.R.K., produced the most illustrious Halloween art extravaganza NYC had ever seen. It was such a smash hit that the sequel was in demand before the night was over.

MONSTER II

The Sinful Sequel
Dramatics · 120 E 34th Street · Midtown, NYC
The sinful sequel to MONSTER — this time the witches and wayward souls joined the calamity. Gathering in the heart of New York City, it was a night of art, ghoulish antics and sultry performances by our creatures of the night.
