In 1999 he began his professional artistic career with Arelis Díaz as project director bringing the exploration and love of art to school children.

Carballo impacted 4,620 students in Caracas between 1999 and 2014 before being forced into exile to the Netherlands because of his perceived political teachings. In 2019 he was chosen by the United States to enter the country for safety and further his research and teaching.

Pueblo Potter Erik Fender (Than Tsideh or Sunbird, born 1970) is a highly skilled and creative potter from San Ildefonso Pueblo. His work has been influenced by his mother, Martha Appleleaf, and his grandmother, legendary potter Carmelita Dunlap and great, great Aunt Maria Martinez. Over the years Fender has worked in a variety of styles both traditional and contemporary, including polychrome, black-on-black and his innovative green-on-black vessels. His designs often include traditional feather patterns as well as his own contemporary interpretations of petroglyphs and animal forms. All of his work is made by hand with clay gathered from San Ildefonso Pueblo and constructed using the traditional coil method. Highly collectible, you might want to make this yours! The Gallery is open until 3:30 today.

You're lounging in your environment sipping on a beverage when this small wall space grabs your attention and you realize, it's naked!

This realization actually happened to a couple of guests from different parts of the country a few days ago and they found a solution here at Stephen Smith Gallery. Upon viewing these two small pieces by Marvin Henry, they immediately knew they would fit very nicely in their environment providing a wonderful visual experience every day!

This may cause you to laugh a bit - until you look around and see, you have nakedness everywhere.

I invite you to come see us as we have solutions in many sizes😉

Our Historic Building is Art in Itself

The building housed meat markets from 1890 to 1899. With construction starting in 1888, and occupancy in 1890, the building has stood sound for the past 130 years. Architectural firm, Hopkins & Holland, designed a block of three buildings for Messrs. Handy, O’Brien & Minney – 927, 929 and 931 – some of the first buildings in the 900 Block at that time.

Numerous businesses have called 931 home over the past century – coal dealer, tinner, restaurants, print shops, banks, law firms, utility companies, gift shops and more. From 1978 to present, Stephen Smith has occupied this stone and brick building starting with a photography studio, and in October of 2018, opened a downtown fine art gallery.

Historic features are clearly exposed, displaying the fine craftsmanship of its architecture. Stone and brick walls, along with an ornate tin ceiling and transoms, add character to the intriguing appeal of the gallery’s fine art display space. The many textures provide an inviting environment for our guests to enjoy the artwork of artists represented by Stephen Smith Gallery.
