About Winston Smith<\/span><\/p>\n

Winston Smith, a master of “hand-carved” collage, has been crafting his thought-provoking art since the 1970\u2019s. After being abroad for six years, Winston returned to America and was astonished by the complacency the American public exhibited towards the corporate domination in their society. Winston began taking \u201csafe\u201d images from magazines and combining them to create politically charged works of art that challenge the viewer to confront incongruities and political paradoxes of modern society<\/span><\/span>. <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Smith first became known (and later beloved) for his collaborations with punk legends <\/span><\/span>Dead Kennedys<\/span><\/span><\/span> and his numerous album covers, inserts and flyers for the band in their formative years. His technique of cutting out by hand and gluing each individual element has inspired a generation of artists.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
