Ludovic Nkoth is a painter based in New York. Born in Cameroon in 1994, he moved with his family to Spartanburg, North Carolina, when he was 13 years old. After completing his undergraduate studies at UNC, he moved to New York to attend Hunter College's MFA program, which he finished in 2021. Last year, Nkoth was awarded a prestigious residency through the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he is currently living. Among the key comparisons for Nkoth’s work are Kerry James Marshall, who similarly taps into art history to enliven present-day subjects; Noah Davis, whose work is also sophisticated and subtle; and Alex Katz, who maintained a long career and a unique sense of artistic vision amid rapidly changing fashions.
