Lucien Smith Art

American, b. 1989

Lucien Smith, referred to as an art world Wunderkind by the New York Times in 2013, received a BFA from The Cooper Union School of Art in 2011. Smith, who is based in New York, has widely exhibited in group and solo shows in the United States and abroad, including Skarstedt Gallery, Salon 94, OHWOW Gallery, Marianne Boesky Gallery, Contemporary Arts Center New Orleans and the American Academy in Rome. A Simple Twist of Fate is one of Smith’s acclaimed Rain paintings, created during the year Smith spent living and working in Hudson, New York. In this series of paintings, he applies paint to an unprimed canvas using a fire extinguisher, resulting in an atmospheric mist of yellow and blue paint droplets that echoes the pattern of rainfall and brings to mind the Impressionist artists' fascination with the interaction of rain and light. According to Smith, “The Rain paintings in his head serve as backdrops for situations between people and/or objects, very much like backdrops in a play. They become activated when something is placed in front of them; only then do their scale and size come into effect.”

The Dill III - Large Original Abstract Expressionism Painting on Canvas

By Bruce Rubenstein

Located in Los Angeles, CA

The paintings of Bruce Rubenstein seamlessly marry sophistication with affordability. His original art merges the creative attitudes of the two distinct art hot spots of New York and Los Angeles. Rubenstein's work has a rigid edge and strong composition but maintains organic shapes and soft colors as well. His works have a character that brightens a space. His paintings pull from abstract expressionism and cubism but maintain a contemporary edge that strikes the viewer. His work seems collectively new and timeless at once. This large affordable one-of-a-kind 52 inch high by 76 inch wide and 1.5 inch deep artwork is a mixed media composition on canvas. It is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. This large abstract painting is signed by the artist on the front and back of the artwork. The sides are painted and it does not require framing. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping available. Provenance: Artplex Gallery. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. While the artist has chosen to keep the price upon request, this captivating piece embodies both sophistication and exceptional value. Bruce Rubenstein specializes in large-scale artworks, using huge canvases to tell his stories. Born and raised in New York, he moved to Los Angeles in 1985. His mixed media artworks defy categorization, blending abstract forms and organic shapes with subtle hints of figures and symbols. Adrien Brody and Mickey Rourke are among Rubenstein’s collectors. Bruce Rubenstein’s artistic influences include artists from Joan Miró and Jean Arp to Gerhard Richter and Pablo Picasso. “He is an artist, and that means someone who cannot restrain the flow of ideas,” says author David Rodgers. “He is someone who they just burst out of, who cannot help but communicate, and who sees no reason to stop. He’s a man not limited by media to communicate the stories that he needs to (and must) tell, through any medium he feels necessary.” His works are represented by Artplex Gallery Los Angeles and have been exhibited and collected worldwide, including exhibitions in Austria and Israel.
