"Henry Taylor is one of those artists who just does it—puts shit
together, paints what he feels like painting. He works, as they say,
intuitively. But that’s not to dismiss the thoughtful way he’s arranged
his subjects: urban life, Black life, the artist’s life. Whether working
on tree-like assemblages, installations that bring the city’s grit into
the gallery, or (his calling) figurative painting, Taylor approaches
the world and the people in it not as an aloof observer or “student of
man,” but as someone full of empathy, someone who lives here too. ..."
