Art Spiel - Juan Hinojosa: Ensemble Iconographies by Etty Yaniv

New York based artist Juan Hinojosa collects found objects from everywhere he passes by. A toy snake, a  wooden bird, a Good Luck charm, fragments from advertisements and  billboards—find their way into his intricate compositions, creating  altogether layered sculptural assemblages and intricate two dimensional  collages. In both dimensional and flat formats, Hinojosa’s vocabulary is  grounded in Pop aesthetics with a tint of Surrealism. Through super  vivid colors and elaborate graphic shapes he depicts imaginary worlds  where extravagant shrines and hybrid flowery creatures become a  convincing presence. When you get closer, you can most likely trace  where they came from.

In his explosive and vibrant collages, Juan Hinojosa explores  themes of desire and identity—riffing off pop culture iconography,  dreaming on representation, and creating Cinderella’s out of any and all  bits and bobs he comes across. Incorporating trash alongside  conventional art materials and objects from high-end stores, Hinojosa  calls the viewer into a treasure hunt around and across his layered  compositional imagery.

Mandeville Gallery: All Mine by Juan Hinojosa

Art Review – From Trash to Gold: Juan Hinojosa and Transitional Consumerism

Art Review – From Trash to Gold: Juan Hinojosa and Transitional Consumerism

Embracing the concept of the library as a laboratory, the Mandeville  Gallery and the Schaffer Library at Union College annually present the  Art Installation Series in an effort to shift the visual arts from a  gallery setting into a public space.


Juan Hinojosa is the sixth featured artist in the Art Installation  Series. Hinojosa finds inspiration from the glamour of fashion  magazines, television, and the lifestyle associated with New York City,  but he questions our desires to be part of this world. He collects  discarded items such as magazines, advertisements, postcards, and toys  to arrange and play with, as a painter might arrange color with paint.

Art Review – From Trash to Gold: Juan Hinojosa and Transitional Consumerism

Born and raised in Queens, New York, Juan Hinojosa is a multimedia  artist specializing in collage—an artistic practice popularized by the  major avant-garde movements, Cubism and Dada, that incorporates found  objects, usually print forms including newspapers and photographs.  Through this technique, Hinojosa explores the multi-faceted  constructions of our contemporary entertainment: fashion, pop culture,  TV, cinema, and advertisements of make-up, jewelry, and perfume. He  merges highly circulated imagery with objects of our daily lives as New  Yorkers: metro cards, food wrappers, dry-cleaning labels, flattened  cans, and various brands of soft drinks, alcohol, household goods, and  frozen foods.
