Art Trouble is a 1934 American pre-Code comedy short directed by Ralph Staub and starring Harry Gribbon and Shemp Howard. The film is notable for featuring an uncredited James Stewart in his first screen role.

Gribbon was one of several comedy team partners with whom Shemp Howard worked. Howard had been an original member of the Three Stooges and brother of Stooges Curly Howard and Moe Howard. Shemp began making his own shorts prior to having to return to the Stooges in the wake of Curly's strokes in the mid-1940s.
