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 data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16130 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg?resize=696%2C523&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"523\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg?resize=1024%2C770&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg?resize=300%2C226&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg?resize=768%2C578&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg?resize=1536%2C1155&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg?resize=696%2C523&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg?resize=1068%2C803&amp;ssl=1 1068w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg?resize=1920%2C1444&amp;ssl=1 1920w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg?w=2048&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-2.jpeg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w\" 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 data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16131 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.jpeg?resize=696%2C952&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"952\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.jpeg?resize=749%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 749w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.jpeg?resize=219%2C300&amp;ssl=1 219w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.jpeg?resize=768%2C1050&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.jpeg?resize=1124%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1124w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.jpeg?resize=696%2C952&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.jpeg?resize=1068%2C1460&amp;ssl=1 1068w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.jpeg?w=1498&amp;ssl=1 1498w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image.jpeg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16131\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u201cKeith Haring &#8211;
