Noah Davis (June 3, 1983 – August 29, 2015), was an American painter and installation artist. In 2012, Davis and his wife, sculptor Karon Om Vereen–Davis, founded the Underground Museum in Los Angeles. When talking about his work, Davis said, "If I’m making any statement, it’s to just show black people in normal scenarios, where drugs and guns are nothing to do with it," and described his work as "instances where black aesthetics and modernist aesthetics collide."
Davis died at his home in Ojai, California, on August 29, 2015, of a rare form of soft tissue cancer.
