Sam Middleton (April 2, 1927 – July 19, 2015) was a mixed-media artist from New York City. He traveled all over the world with the American merchant navy, living in Mexico and Sweden and eventually settling in the Netherlands where he was "part of the significant unforeseen 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 inaugural 2015 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. Known for his personal style, Middleton liked to use abstract expressionism in his work, basing his color, lines and compositions on sound and harmony. Middleton specialized in working with collage.
