Luis Gispert (b 1972 Jersey City, New Jersey) is a Cuban- American artist that creates through a wide range of media, including photography, film, painting and sculpture. Born out of research into subject matter that intersect themes of the American popular imagination, social class anxiety,  art history and his Caribbean lineage, the work ask questions about conspicuous consumption by accessorizing its relationships to psychoanalysis, the cult of authenticity and the theater of personal narrative. His art strives to bring things in our world that are marginalized or under appreciated from the edges to the center, so they can be seen in their fullness. He attended Miami Dade College, and studied film and sculpture at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and Yale University. He has exhibited a nd screened his work internationally in museums and galleries like such as the Brooklyn Museum of Art, The Studio Museum in Harlem, Shanghai Museum of Contemporary Art,Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami, the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, Palazzo Brocherasio in Turin, the Royal Academy in London, the Haifa Museum in Israel, the Des Moines Art Center and the Guggenheim. His work is represented in over twenty one public collections including the Museum of Fine Art Boston, SFMOMA, Whitney Museum of American Art, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum  Bronx Museum, The New Museum, The Harvard Fogg Art Museum, the Des Moines Art Center, The Perez Museum, and the Henry Art Gallery. He has been a visiting artist lecturer at Yale University, Columbia University, New York University and the University of Pennsylvania. 300th Episode T-shirt link https://www.customink.com/fundraising/episode300 IG : @soundandvisionpodcast
