Art Brokerage: Henry Taylor American Artist: b. 1958. The paintings of Henry Taylor invite the outside world into his very personal sphere. Using everyone and everything around him as a source of inspiration for his art, Taylor’s portraits present a diverse cast of characters ranging from sports heroes to people from his downtown LA neighbourhood, addressing community in its most expansive sense. Similarly to the rest of the artists represented in this show, Taylor paints what he sees and relates to: the world around him. He does so with the most lighthearted naivety and a subtle sense for social justice, making no distinctions between iconic historical figures and the people on the sidewalk. His subjects include friends, relatives, acquaintances from the art world, as well as heroes from the worlds of sports and politics. A 2012 residency at MoMA PS1 in New York encouraged “a frenzy of portraits of staff and patrons of the museum”, a memory they cherish until today. Listings wanted.
