Public Art and Sculpture
Gregg LeFevre is a public artist and sculptor whose career spans more than 200 site-specific works installed around the world. Rooted in a lifelong interest in place and narrative, his cast-metal reliefs bring forward the stories, histories, and defining traits of the locations they inhabit. His works appear throughout plazas, parks, lobbies, walkways, and urban corridors, inviting passersby to pause and engage with their surroundings. Many are conceived as series of carefully sequenced pieces that guide viewers through a site and deepen their sense of connection to it. In New York City, he has completed more than a dozen such projects. His widely recognized Library Walk on 41st Street features nearly 100 bronze sidewalk reliefs with images and text celebrating world literature and leading viewers to Fifth Ave directly across from the doors of the New York Public Library main branch.
LeFevre’s work has been commissioned by major cities including New York, Miami, Chicago, Boston, Las Vegas, Seattle, and Los Angeles. His projects have been exhibited throughout the United States, and he has received support from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Browne Fund, and the New York City Arts Commission.
Photography and Mixed Media
In the early 1990s, LeFevre expanded his practice to include mixed-media work that merges street photography with sculptural relief. Drawing on decades of working in the urban environment, he explores the visual conversation between advertisers and those who alter, confront, or reinterpret their imagery, artists to installers to everyday workers. His photographs capture these layered interactions, revealing the vibrancy and complexity of public space.
Additional Work
LeFevre is also the creator and host of The Compulsive Storyteller, a podcast in which he shares personal narratives that reflect the same curiosity, humor, and engagement with urban life that shape his visual art.
