Gary Simmons is an American artist from New York City. Using icons and stereotypes of American popular culture, he creates works that address personal and collective experiences of race and class. He is best known for his "erasure drawings", in which he draws in white chalk or oil on slate-painted panels, canvases or walls, then smudges them with his hands – a technique that renders their imagery ghostly.
