“He recognizes early on that advertisements and commercial labels possess the impact and ‘high-visibility’ he wants for his art." - Stuart Davis: In Full Swing catalogue.
The son of an ad designer and illustrator, Stuart Davis' work was heavily influenced by consumer culture, including print advertising and product packaging of the early 20th century. In the spirit of our recently opened exhibition, Stuart Davis: In Full Swing, we want to see how today’s advertisements and packaging inspires you.
