Muut tiedot
Bill Saylor, born in 1960 and based in Brooklyn, NY, is a key figure amid the Brooklyn painting scene that emerged in the early 2000s and includes artists such as Joe Bradley, Katherine Bernhardt, Chris Martin and Josh Smith. Bill Saylor is represented by Magenta Plains, New York and Loyal in Lund, Sweden.
His practice emerged from the Brooklyn painting scene of the 1990s and is rooted in a lineage that spans German Expressionism and Neo-Expressionism, drawing on the psychic intensity of artists such as Joseph Beuys and George Baselitz alongside the visceral mark-making of Julian Schnabel and subsequent generations of painters working intuitively with material and gesture.
Man vs nature, industrial and cultural waste assimilated by the natural world are recurrent themes in Saylor’s paintings and drawings filled with symbolic imagery: the bald eagle with a car engine block instead of a heart holding two small earths in it’s claws; a giant octopus grasping a roaring bear; the Green River Killer, a famous murderer, as a girl-eating monster with eyes of yellow snakes.
