Jackson Neimeth Dickstein (b.1997 San Francisco, CA) is an American-German draftsman, painter, multidisciplinary sculptor, and art educator based in Marseille, France.

His work is concerned with drawing connections between the inherently emotional nature of form and line, and shared anthropological histories. Whether that be through the circuitous movements of the peoples of Europe, the plethora of life taking place in the broad plazas of Mexico City, or the interactions of roadside characters in his much beloved New Mexico. This web of societal phenomena lays the foundation for observational work that continuously bends genre while upholding a quality of organic familiarity.

In 2023, Jackson was the recipient of two artist residencies in Mexico City: Otra Cosa Sin Nombre, and Koik Contemporary. Since 2023 he has exhibited internationally in both Mexico and the U.S.

For over a decade Jackson has been deeply engaged in art education, earning particular acclaim for his efforts in educating the youth of Northern New Mexico in contemporary art from 2020-2024.
