Sam Middleton (April 2, 1927 – July 19, 2015) was a mixed-media artist from New York City. He traveled around the world on the American merchant marine, lived in Mexico and Sweden, and finally settled in the Netherlands where he was "part of the considerable contingency presence of expatriate African-American artists". When he settled in the Netherlands in 1961, he established himself as one of the most important artists in the Netherlands. His work is part of the permanent collection of the Whitney Museum, which included him in the 1962 exhibition 40 Artists Under 40 and was included in the 2015 inaugural exhibition for the museum's new building on the High Line.

Middleton was born in New York City and grew up in the Harlem neighborhood of the city. Middleton is known for his personal style and liked to use abstract expressionism in his work, basing his color, lines and compositions on sound and harmony. Middleton specialized in working with collage.
