Born in 1979 in Las Vegas, Nate Lowman lives and works in New York.

Nate Lowman’s After Delacroix brings works by the artist in dialogue with the Romantic master to examine how influence shifts across generations and contexts. At the center of the exhibition is an oil painting by Lowman that reimagines the 19th-century painter’s palette as both a material archive and a record of artistic decision-making. Surrounding it, light sculptures assembled from hand-printed t-shirts, paint cans, and other studio materials transform cultural fragments into new symbols, while a painting (in the shape of a car air freshener) references a canvas by painter Cecily Brown–who herself is also directly inspired by Delacroix’s legacy. By tracing these lines of influence, Lowman reanimates Delacroix’s work as a living force and treats history itself as a material to be worked with.
