Steve Mumford

Steve Mumford lives and works in New York city. Perceiving the automobile as an American icon, Mumford’s grandiose paintings of automobiles display many of the ideas once associated with cars, such as freedom, modernity, and strength. Mumford also focuses in on design elements that compose the look of these automobiles. His replication of brand logos and the distinctive architecture of classic cars creates a relationship between his paintings and the ideas and energy we once associated with big, fast cars.
