Hauser & Wirth’s latest exhibition in Paris, From Sugar to Shit, features the stunning work of Los Angeles-based artist Henry Taylor. This highly-anticipated exhibition serves as Taylor’s first major show in France, providing the Paris art scene with a unique opportunity to explore the diverse range of his artistic talent. Featuring over 30 paintings, sculptures and works on paper, Taylor’s exhibition in Paris invites viewers into a captivating realm where traditional painting is both embraced and challenged, defying conventional categorizations and simplistic labels.
Henry Taylor’s career, spanning four decades, has been characterized by both embracing and rejecting traditional painterly and formal labels. His deep connection to the people and communities around him is reflected in his extensive body of work, which includes figurative, landscape and history painting, as well as drawing, installation and sculpture. Often interwoven with poignant references to history and pop culture, Taylor’s highly personal art invites the viewer into a multifaceted narrative rooted in human connection.
