About the artist
Bruno Smith (b. 1990, New York City) is a Mexican-American artist who lives and works in New York City, whose work investigates the production and display of culture and identity, with a focus on the politically charged history of the colonization of the Americas and its legacy for the LatinX community. A graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and an MFA candidate at Rutgers University’s Mason Gross School of the Arts, Smith has exhibited in Miami, Chicago and New York, including the 2010 and 2012 editions of the Bruce High-Quality Foundation’s Brucennial, and through Apostrophe NYC’s Base 12 Project at the Whitney Museum of American Art, MoMA PS1 and Mana Contemporary. His work is held in private and public collections including the US Embassy in Sri Lanka.
