A pioneering figure in photography and digital art, Samaras has been at the forefront of these mediums throughout his career, working in the digital realm well before it was associated with fine art. The XYZ series, which includes four bodies of work created between 2010 and 2012, exemplifies the artist’s longstanding investigations of form, color, space, and the expansive possibilities of image making.The NFTs from this series are dated 2012/2021 to reflect their original format and later transformation into NFTs. In these digital artworks, psychedelic, electrically colored formations intersect and interact, forging captivating compositions that beckon viewers into dreamlike realms. With the XYZ series, Samaras constructs ineffable universes rife with mystery and magic.The XYZ series is engaged with some of Samaras’s most iconic works, including his Photo-Transformations series (1973–1976), centered on unorthodox manipulations of Polaroids, and Photofictions (2003), featuring fragmented self-portraits and fantastical abstractions. The artist has devoted much of his career to charting new frontiers in photography and digital art, and experimentation remains integral to his practice.

The theme of self-depiction and identity has been a driving force behind his practice, which, at its onset in the early 1960s, advanced the Surrealist idiom yet proposed a radical departure from the presiding themes of Abstract Expressionism and Pop art.Learn More Journal View All News Announcing Our Dedicated NFT Platform Jul 07, 2021 Press Artforum - Under the Cover: Lucas Samaras Dec 30, 2020 Pace Live Virtual Studio Visit: Lucas Samaras Jul 07, 2020 Essays Curator's Choice: Lucas Samaras Apr 05, 2020 Pace Verso — Lucas Samaras: XYZ, Nov 22, 2021
