Joseph Sanchez (artist)
Joseph M. Sanchez (born ca. 1948) is an artist and museum curator.
Sanchez was born in Trinidad, Colorado. He has roots in the White Mountain Apache Reservation and Taos Pueblo communities.
Sanchez has been a leader in Indigenous and Chicano arts since the 1970s, and has collaborated with multiple artists. This co-creation has included creating work, exhibitions, and advocating for the rights of minority artists. This is seen most importantly in his work with the Professional Native Indian Artists (Indian Group of Seven).
Sanchez had artistic aspirations from an early age, becoming interested in art and painting in 5th grade. He became more serious about pursuing an art career when he met Daphne Odjig in Winnipeg in the early 1970s. Odjig mentored and invited him to participate in what became the Indian Group of Seven.
Sanchez serves as Chief Curator at the Portage College's Museum of Aboriginal Peoples' Art & Artifacts, in Lac La Biche, Alberta. This museum houses a permanent collection dedicated to the Professional Native Indian Artists Inc. Sanchez and Alex Janvier took part in the opening of the collection in 2018.
Sanchez states that "I mostly paint from a feminist point of view. We need to protect women."
Since retirement, Sanchez has continued to curate, but primarily returned to the studio full-time, and continues to exhibit in galleries and museums internationally. He lives in Santa Fe, N.M.
