Sandy Smith (born 2 August 1983) is a Scottish visual artist based in New York City.

[1] He is the younger brother of professional Rock Climber Malcolm Smith "Road Trip USA" During August 2008, Smith undertook a collaborative project with another Glasgow-based artist, Alex Gross, which saw them create 3 solo exhibitions during a 9000 miles road trip around the western United States.

The trip was, in Sandy Smith's words, to be a "fast, flowing journey into optimism, failure, modernism, landscape and tourism, as well as a jovial examination of the artist's role in relation to these grand ideals".

In May 2007, the essay was to prove that Junior is the best film ever made, and reference various philosophers and thinkers such as Roland Barthes, Jean Baudrillard, Michel Foucault, Sigmund Freud and Marc Augé amongst others.

The topic has also spurred a competition where the public is invited to submit their own take on why the film should be considered the greatest ever made, with cash prizes available for the winning entries.
