Todd Gray is now represented by Lehmann Maupin.

The American photographer Todd Gray is now represented by Lehmann Maupin. The artist—who is based between Los Angeles and Akwidaa, Ghana—is renowned for his photo assemblages, and delves deep into topics of African diaspora, colonialism, and cultural beliefs. Earlier this year, Gray presented his first solo exhibition, “On Point,” with Lehmann Maupin in London, and will also debut new work at Art Basel Miami Beach with the gallery this December. Gray will continue to work with David Lewis in New York.

Born in 1954, Gray challenges the veracity and integrity of photography, urging viewers to reconsider the medium’s authenticity. His images, spanning from small-scale works to large prints, combine disparate references to evoke dialogue about place, time, and a collective past. Working with photographs of pop culture, documentary photographs of Ghana, portraits of Michael Jackson, gang members from South Los Angeles, and photo documentation from the Hubble telescope, Gray presents a complex definition of identity.

“Through his lens, Todd Gray explores the connections between history, race, and the human experience, crafting a narrative that demands thoughtful reflection,” said Rachel Lehmann, co-founder of Lehmann Maupin. “His presence in the program enriches our gallery’s commitment to representing artists who challenge, inspire, and contribute significantly to the ever-evolving landscape of contemporary art.”

Educated at the California Institute of the Arts, Gray has exhibited his work globally, appearing in the collections of the Whitney Museum, J. Paul Getty Museum, and the National Gallery of Canada. His illustrious career includes several awards, notably the Rome Prize Fellowship and the John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship for Fine Arts.
