“Perhaps the most vibrant collage maestro since Max Ernst and single-handedly responsible for an entire generation’s graphic style, Winston continues to stomp the upturned face of The Man, endlessly. ~ Frank Kozik
“Following that time-tested tradition of montage, collage and random image appropriation, Winston Smith takes this medium one step further than his precursors, Max Ernst and Marcel Duchamp.” ~ Robert Williams
"Winston Smith's collage art is a cutting socio-political commentary on the late 20th Century. Irreverent in style, each unique piece is bursting with color and kinetic ideas." ~ H.R. Giger
