Gabriel Garcia Roman was born in Zacatecas, Mexico and raised in Chicago. He received his B.A. from The City College of New York where he studied Studio Art.
His art has been acquired by the International Center of Photography and Museum of Contemporary Religious Art. It has been shown at the Museum of Latin American Art (Long Beach, CA), Cathedral of St. John the Divine (New York, NY), the Center for Photography at Woodstock (Woodstock, NY), and numerous other institutions and galleries.
In 2019 he was commissioned by the Leslie-Lohman Museum to bring his Queer Icons series into the streets for the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots where 100 Queer Icons flags were marched down the World Pride route. In 2022 he was one of 7 Latinx artists to collaborate with Target for Latinx Heritage Month. He currently has a solo exhibition at the Visual Arts Center of New Jersey.
