Lucien Smith

Lucien Smith is an artist experimenting with the results of amalgamating various art genres, concepts, and techniques. He creates work that traverses a spectrum of styles and concerns, from chance to purpose, spare to saturated, sublime to familiar. These visual approaches or directives may combine and overlap in one piece, or spread individually through a series – each idea originally segregated, fully integrates when understood as an oeuvre. Every piece acts as a tangible moment, a chronicle of exploration as he negotiates with existence. Smith reminds us that an artist’s trajectory is a sensory reflection of individual experience.


He has had solo exhibitions at Half Gallery in New York,OHWOW Gallery in Los Angeles, and Ritter-Zamet in London, among others. His work has been included in group exhibitions at Prospect New Orleans, American Academy in Rome, and Marianne Boesky in New York.
