Junc Gallery exhibited contemporary art influenced by illustration and related genres. As such it showed work by artists early in their exhibition history including: Ben Jones (Paper Rad), Eddie Martinez, Futurefarmers, Justin Wood, Brendan Monroe.
Junc Gallery existed from 2004 to 2009 at 4017 Sunset Blvd, (Sunset Junction) in the neighborhood of Los Angeles known as Silver Lake exhibiting an emerging culture of artists influenced by cartoons, illustration, comics, zines and related aesthetics. The rapid emergence of this vernacular into contemporary art galleries during this period has also been called "Post Illustration" by Art Critic Shana Nys Dambrot in a review of the artist Brendan Monroe, an early exhibitor at Junc. Whatever name the art canon ultimately settles on Junc Gallery was an important early adopter of these aesthetic movements in contemporary art.
