Leon Polk Smith: A Visionary of Form and Space

Leon Polk Smith (1906–1996) was a trailblazer in the American abstract art scene. Born in Oklahoma, Smith drew inspiration from his Native American heritage and the vast landscapes of the Southwest. His work, however, was anything but traditional. By the 1950s, he had developed a unique visual language characterized by geometric precision and a mastery of negative space. Black and White Repeat is a testament to his belief that art should be both intellectually engaging and visually striking—a philosophy that continues to resonate with collectors and curators worldwide.
