Holding Ground

by Donald J. Hagerty, Gary Ernest Smith

The art of Gary Ernest Smith speaks for landscapes and cultures rarely, if ever, spoken for in contemporary American art. A concept of place and of the people who inhabit particular places loom large in Smith's vision. The art of Gary Ernest Smith celebrates what we once had; it is a lament for vanishing places and farm-based culture. First and foremost, Smith is a painter and sculptor of rural subjects.
