Chuck Close
American · b. 1940
Chuck Close famously constructed large scale portrait grids using pixelated cells of color that collectively resolve into recognizable images, directly mirroring Nick Smith's technique of building compositions from discrete color units arranged in a systematic grid format.
Damien Hirst
British · b. 1965
Hirst's iconic spot paintings share the same Pop Art sensibility and systematic use of repeating color swatches arranged in geometric grids, reflecting a similar conceptual approach to color organization and serialized print editions.
Sigmar Polke
German · b. 1941
Polke pioneered the use of raster dot patterns and found color systems to reconstruct recognizable imagery, blending Pop Art influences with conceptual rigor in a way that closely parallels Nick Smith's pixelated color chip compositions.
