AMEN CORNER - REGINALD BAYLOR @FRIEDRICHS PONTONE 09 JAN - 09 FEB, 2025 Friedrichs Pontone is pleased to present a collection of new works by Reginald Baylor. His intricate attention to detail and playful use of color create a visual language that resonates deeply. Baylor invites viewers to explore the iconic symbols, enigmatic figures, and dreamlike landscapes that bridge the past and future. Reginald Baylor is a contemporary artist known for his bold, geometric works that combine elements of abstraction, Pop Art, and Black cultural identity. A self-taught painter, Baylor began his artistic journey studying sculpture at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh before shifting his focus to painting, where he developed his signature style of creating intricate mazes of black lines that define vibrant blocks of color.

Beams of fierce light in the gloom, the artists in "Pagans" occupy the present with a battery of glittering shrines, icons, shape-shifting chimeras, avenging angels and assorted talismans to charge up your warring spirit and bid you to return to tribal weirdo eccentricity.

NYC LEGEND - ALEXANDER KLINGSPOR
@NORTH 5TH PARK AND PIER, BROOKLYN
14 DEC, 2024 - 13 DEC, 2025
This piece depicts the legend of the alligator in the NYC sewers. It deals with two interesting aspects of our world; our need for gods, myths, and legends much like any other civilisation prior to ours, and our habit of creating invasive species by moving animals from their natural habitats to human environments.
