Professor Juan Sánchez, an influential artist and longtime member of the Hunter faculty, has a new solo exhibition in Brooklyn. His show, ¿What’s the Meaning of This?, runs through December 27 at BRIC House, 647 Fulton Street.

Sánchez was born in Brooklyn to Puerto Rican parents. A graduate of Cooper Union and Rutgers University and the winner of a Guggenheim Fellowship, he is known widely for his leadership in the Nuyorican cultural movement. At Hunter, he teaches painting and drawing to studio art students.

Sánchez’s pioneering works of photograph, painting and mixed media famous for their complex composition and unsparing focus on political and social issues are in the collections of MoMA, the Met and the Whitney. In recent decades, countless artists have been inspired by his brilliant reflections on racial and economic inequality, cultural and national identity, everyday life and popular rebellion.
