December’s global theme: Innovation

Columbus speaker: Magnus Juliano

Magnus Juliano (He/Him) is an internationally recognized multidisciplinary artist, designer, and creative director. Largely self-taught, his practice spans graphic design, photography, mixed media, fashion, and accessory design.

He first gained global attention in 2019 when his Louis Vuitton inspired hair accessory concept went viral, earning features in Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. Since then, Magnus’s innovative approach blending cultural commentary with bold visual storytelling has become a signature of his work.

In 2022, he presented A Journey to Motherland: Black Panther Gift Shop at the Cincinnati Art Museum, a multimedia installation exploring identity, history, and resistance through design, animation, and sculpture. The work sparked national dialogue and was covered by outlets like Hyperallergic and Desus & Mero.

Magnus continues to push creative boundaries and serve his community as a Navigator for the Greater Columbus Arts Council, helping connect local artists and resources while inspiring conversation across race, culture, and the future.
