Roy Jenuine: Modern Folk Art Exhibit

About the Event

Leucadia-based mixed media artist Roy Jenuine hosts an exhibit – Roy Jenuine: Modern Folk Art – in Solana Beach, showcasing a lifetime of work from 1978 through today. Jenuine has spent his life’s work blending wood, photography and found materials to create artful masterpieces spanning functional furniture to mixed-media assemblage.

The temporary, early summer exhibition will take place from June 9 and run through July 6, with an opening night reception, Friday, June 13 from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. Following the opening party, which is open to the public, the gallery will be open Thursday through Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Jenuine’s work explores materials, finishes, and craftsmanship, as well as observations about his surroundings. He finds humor in the everyday, captures nostalgia, pushes the boundaries of function and form. He aligns himself with folk art and architecture, addressing both complex modernist aesthetics and found elements from the salvage yard.

Drawing from his childhood in Los Angeles, early 1970s residency at the radical architectural project Arcosanti, and formal training at San Diego State University, Jenuine has developed a distinctive visual vocabulary that is rigorous, fun, meditative and truly original.
