Welcome to an archive of works, exhibitions, and projects by American artist Greg Ito (b. 1987), who lives and works in Los Angeles.
Ito is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans painting, sculpture, installation, film, and digital media. His distinct visual language is characterized by crisp pictorial imagery, vivid color palettes, carefully constructed compositions, and recurring symbols that build narratives around memory, time, identity, loss, growth, resilience, and hope. Across his work, Ito draws attention to the idea of an inner light, the sense of something within us that can guide us forward through change and uncertainty. This visual language and symbolic vocabulary are translated across multiple mediums, from painting and sculpture to immersive installations, animation, and film, allowing each medium to become part of a larger narrative and experience. His work often draws from his Japanese American identity, using storytelling as a point of entry to explore both personal and shared human experiences.
Ito’s practice extends across a range of ways of creating and sharing art. His work has been presented through traditional exhibitions at museums and cultural institutions, gallery exhibitions and art fairs, nonprofit collaborations, public art projects supported by cities and universities, and special projects with brands and creative partners. These varied formats allow the studio to explore new ways of connecting art with different audiences, environments, and experiences. Collaborators and partners include Hermès, JINS, Adidas, Kikori Whiskey, Soho House Global, Progressive, Kaiser Permanente, and others.
Ito’s work has been presented at institutions including the Frye Art Museum (Seattle, WA), the Cantor Arts Center (Stanford, CA), K11 Musea (Hong Kong), the Long Beach Museum of Art (Long Beach, CA), the Institute of Contemporary Art - ICA San Jose (San Jose, CA), Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art (Bentonville, AR), and Rockefeller Center (New York) with Art Production Fund.
His work is included in the collections of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), the Hammer Museum (Los Angeles), the Institute of Contemporary Art - ICA Miami (Miami), the Crocker Art Museum (Sacramento), the K11 Art Foundation (Hong Kong), East West Bank, Progressive Art Collection, and Cedars-Sinai, among others.
