Show Object Label(s)Juan Sánchez (b. 1954, American)
is one of the most influential Nuyorican
artists who came to prominence alongside
a generation of LatinX artists working
in New York in the 1980s and 1990s
such as Coco Fusco, Guillermo Gómez-
Peña, and Pepón Osorio. Sanchez
creates mixed-media collages that
combine photography, painting, media
clippings, and found objects. Exploring
questions of ethnic, racial, and national identity, Sánchez’s work draws from his
personal history and addresses the U.S.
occupation of his parents’ homeland
and the bifurcated life of Puerto Ricans
in America.
