Portrait of Andy Robert, 2024

Artspace and Phaidon, in partnership with Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, are pleased to announce a new limited edition silkscreen by preeminent contemporary artist Henry Taylor.

For nearly forty years, Henry Taylor has depicted the world around him through his own eyes, often resulting in compelling images of diverse subjects from family and friends to celebrities, politicians, or strangers. Combining flat planes of color with areas of generous detail and loose brushstrokes, his new limited edition print, like his paintings, radiates with life.

Taylor is known for creating empathetic portraits that present holistic, complex, and deeply human narratives. “It’s about respect, because I respect these people. It’s a two-dimensional surface, but they are really three-dimensional beings.” - Henry Taylor

Intimately engaged with art history, Taylor’s work recalls the provocative and transformational paintings of artists like Philip Guston and Pablo Picasso. The expansive retrospective exhibition Henry Taylor: B Side traveled from MOCA Los Angeles to The Whitney in New York and was celebrated as the most consequential museum exhibition of 2023, garnering countless glowing reviews.

“As long as there are artists like Henry Taylor around, painting is in little danger of dying.” - Roberta Smith, The New York Times

Taylor lives and works in Los Angeles. He has been the subject of numerous exhibitions in the United States and internationally, and his work is in prominent public collections including the Bourse de Commerce – Pinault Collection, Paris, France, The Bronx Museum of the Arts, Bronx NY, Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburg PA, The Fondation Louis Vuitton, Paris, France, Hammer Museum, Los Angeles CA, Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston MA, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles CA, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York NY, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles CA, Museum of Fine Art, Houston TX, Museum of Modern Art, New York NY, Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University, Durham NC, Pérez Art Museum, Miami FL, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco CA, The Studio Museum in Harlem, New York NY, and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York NY. In 2018, Taylor was the recipient of The Robert De Niro, Sr. Prize in 2018 for his outstanding achievements in painting. Taylor’s work was presented at the Whitney Biennial at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York NY in 2017 and 58th Venice Biennale, Venice, Italy in 2019.

Artworks with a deckled or decorative edges will be floated on the matboard, with acrylic spacers to separate the art from the glazing. All mounting is fully reversible, without any potential damage to the art.
