Before joining The New Criterion in 2001, Panero was a graduate student in the History of Art and Architecture department at Brown University, where he was awarded the University Scholarship. His area of focus was late-nineteenth-century French modernism.

Panero became the monthly gallery critic of The New Criterion in 2003. His "Gallery Chronicle" column has been praised by writers, artists, and collectors for its coverage of the outer boroughs of New York and their alternative art scenes.[3][4]

In 2007, he became a regular writer for Art & Antiques Magazine.[11] His work is frequently cited for its critical authority.[12]

A member of the International Association of Art Critics, Panero lectures on art, politics, the art market, and cultural policy. In 2013, he was a William and Barbara Edwards Media Fellow at the Hoover Institution of Stanford University.[13] He has spoken at Columbia University, Brown University, Deerfield Academy, The New York Studio School, The College of the Holy Cross, and before the New York Association of Scholars. He has served as a panelist on the National Endowment for the Arts, a "visiting artist" at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, a panelist at the conference at the College Art Association, a panelist at the CPAC convention in Washington DC, and has been a radio guest on The Milt Rosenberg Show (WGN-Chicago), NPR's All Things Considered, WNYC's The Brian Lehrer Show, and several other programs.

Panero is the co-editor of The Dartmouth Review Pleads Innocent, an anthology of the newspaper published by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute in Spring 2006.
