Horner focuses on ordinary queer folk, their issues, and LGBTQ+ icons like Marsha P. Johnson, a rights activist. The artist focuses on painting, but also experiments with drawings, sculptures, and zines. Using a simple color palette, Horner starts his figurative works with a line drawing and develops them to be muscular, abstract, and sometimes humorous.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A native New Yorker, Horner has an M.F.A. in painting from Lehman College and is an artist and board member at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amoseno.org\/artists\/james-horner\">Amos Eno Gallery<\/a> in Manhattan. He has a 40-year retrospective exhibition at the gallery, \u201cMaking of an American Dandy,\u201d as well as an exhibit, \u201cQueer Today \u2013 Love, Power, Freedom,\u201d with his art collective, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jameshornerart.com\/magenta-lounge\">Magenta Lounge.<\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Horner exhibits artwork mainly around the United States \u2013 at The Bronx Museum, The Tulsa Artists Coalition Gallery, Satchel Projects, public art shows in Chicago, and The Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art. Recent residencies include the DNA Artists Residency and Atelier Artist Residency, and his work has appeared in Out and Advocate magazines.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16130\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16130\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16130 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-1024x770.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"523\" srcset=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-1024x770.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-300x226.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-768x578.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-1536x1155.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-696x523.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-1068x803.jpeg 1068w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2-1920x1444.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16130\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Friday Night Throwdown,\u201d 2010, Acrylic, paper, fabric, and marker on canvas, 95\u201d x 48\u201d<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16131\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16131\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16131 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-749x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"952\" srcset=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-749x1024.jpeg 749w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-219x300.jpeg 219w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-768x1050.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-1124x1536.jpeg 1124w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-696x952.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-1068x1460.jpeg 1068w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.jpeg 1498w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16131\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u201cKeith Haring &#8211; Pop Icon,\u201d 2024, Acrylic on paper, 22\u201d x 30\u201d<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16132\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16132\" style=\"width: 801px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16132 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"801\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-1.jpeg 801w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-1-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-1-768x959.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-1-696x869.jpeg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 801px) 100vw, 801px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16132\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u201cHomebody,\u201d 2024, Acrylic and leather\/metal belt on canvas, 22\u201d x 28\u201d<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interview\/2025\/JamesHorner.mp3Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | TuneIn | RSS | Click here to join mailing listJames Horner is a queer chronicler who educates the public and diverts discrimination from his community.
