Josh Smith
(American, born 1976)
Biography
Josh Smith is an American artist best known for his semi-abstract works which feature pictograph-like symbols painting with broad and watery brushstrokes. Through this repeated, minimalistic imagery, the artist raises questions about the nature of communication and the way in which one can express conceptual ideas through iconographic markings. For example, in his painting Untitled (2006), the artist uses only essential strokes to spell out his name and create geometric patterns across the canvas. Born in 1976 in Knoxville, Tennessee, he studied at the Miami of Ohio University and later at the University of Tennessee. In 2003, the artist held his first solo exhibition titled Josh Smith at the Volume Gallery in New York. Today, his works are held in the collections of the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, among others. Smith lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.
