Ari Lankin was born in the suburbs of Philadelphia in 1980. He received his BFA with High Honors in Painting and Economics from Brandeis University. Known for painting in the studio, on location, and at live events, painting is truly an extension of his lifestyle. He worked at the Guggenheim as an educator for five years, spending countless hours engaged with art objects. Lankin collaborates in a wide variety of projects, including design, apparel, film, performance, curation, and street art. His most notable collaborations are that he designed a shoe for Adidas and he assisted Tino Sehgal during his solo show at the Guggenheim. Lankin lives in Manhattan, where he has had his current studio in East Harlem for the past five years.

COLLABORATE
I’m interested in unique opportunities to flex my creative muscle. Although my primary focus is painting, I also have experience in photography, film, logo design, window displays, clothing customization, collaborative works, and unique creative collaborations. Please feel free to contact me with any project you have in mind.
