Jojo Anavim Win For Life For Sale

Jojo Anavim is a New York based artist raised on Long Island, where he developed an early fascination with branding, packaging, and American consumer culture. As a child, he studied under Disney animator Al Baruch, the creator of Captain Hook and Mighty Mouse, an experience he credits with giving him the confidence to pursue art seriously. He went on to study at Hunter College and later built a career as a graphic designer, working on campaigns for brands including W Hotels, Sephora, and Universal Music Group.

Anavim transitioned to fine art full time in 2013, bringing his design background directly into his painting practice. His work combines acrylic, oil stick, collage, and found materials, including vintage advertisements and packaging he has collected since childhood, layering them into dense, textured compositions. Bold color and repetition run throughout his work, transforming familiar consumer objects, from candy wrappers to logos, into something closer to personal artifact than advertisement. His paintings often carry a nostalgic charge, drawing on the specific branding and packaging of his own upbringing.

Anavim's work is held in institutional and private collections including the Coca-Cola Archives Museum, Madison Square Garden, and the New York Yankees, and he has completed commissions for prominent athletes, musicians, and public figures.
