About JO-HS

Founded by Elisabeth Johs in 2021, JO-HS is a contemporary art gallery with locations in Mexico City and New York, dedicated to supporting and presenting emerging and mid-career artists across painting, sculpture, and new media. With a strong focus on curatorial experimentation, international dialogue, and socially engaged practices, JO-HS works with artists who push the boundaries of form and concept while exploring themes of identity, memory, and cultural hybridity.

The gallery’s roster features artists such as Melissa Ríos, Rodrigo Echeverría, Demit Omphroy, Emil Sands, Chavis Mármol, Andrea Villalón, Katarina Janeckova, Cassandra Mayela, Rose Electra Harris, Floria González, and Neil Hamamoto. Since opening its first physical space in a reimagined modernist building in Mexico City, JO-HS has expanded to New York and, in 2024, relocated its Mexico City gallery to the vibrant Colonia Roma Norte, deepening its engagement with both local and international audiences.
