Lumen Martin Winter was an American public artist whose skills in sculpture, paintings, and works on paper, were widely known during his lifetime. His ability to master a wide range of media – including oil paint, watercolor, marble, and wood – helped Winter maintain his ideology of not reconciling to a single artistic approach. Winter successfully completed over 50 public art projects, with highlights including work at the AFL-CIO building in Washington, D.C., the United States Air Force Academy Cadet Chapel in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and the United Nations General Assembly Building in New York City. The Long Island Museum of American Art, History, and Carriages is the largest repository of Winter's work.
