Timothy Curtis

Timothy Curtis is a self-taught artist from Philadelphia who works in New York City.

Curtis was first introduced to the arts via graffiti writing as a young child in Philadelphia. Later, he immersed himself in the study of art history, drawing, and painting through which he established a focused studio practice in late 2015.

His practice is the natural continuation of a rich artistic tradition from the region of his birth.

Curtis has gone on to have solo presentations in Tokyo, New York City, Berlin and Paris and was included in the 2019 group exhibition The Pencil is a Key: Drawings by Incarcerated Artists, at The Drawing Center in New York City. He was included in the 2022 exhibit Negotiating Grids at Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and in 2023 at Beyond the Streets London at Saatchi Gallery. Recently Curtis was included in The Echo of Picasso at Museo Picasso Malaga, Spain 2024 and The Painters’ Hands at The Current in Stowe, Vermont January 2025.

Curtis is set to present a solo exhibition at Almine Rech in New York City titled Face to the Sun opening September 11, 2025.
