Reginald K. Gee
Reginald K. Gee, a contemporary artist of African American and Native American heritage, is known for his visionary Neo-Expressionist art. Some of the themes explored by this artist include playful musicians, surreal landscapes and seascapes, mystical dreams and fantastic visions.
Gee, born in Milwaukee in 1964, is emerging as a national tour de force on the contemporary art scene. He is a self-taught artist and writer, and his interpretation of subject matter is unique, inventive and illustrates his command of expression in form, color and language. The artist incorporates his own visionary images, symbols, and numerology into his work.
Gee's paintings are figurative, abstract and narrative, expressing through the use of uninhibited color the artist's views of contemporary society. When asked how he learned about art, Gee replied, "I didn't. I still haven't learned. You just do it.” The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel describes Gee's art as "tribal art derived from pop culture and art magazines.”
In recent years, Gee has participated in dozens of shows including "Soul of Black Folk" and the "Chicago Black Art Expo." Gee is influenced by Picasso, de Kooning, Francis Bacon, Jean Michel Basquiat and David Salle. He currently resides in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

- Craig (Richard's Friend - Sitting - Blue Jacket), Mixed media on grey parchmentBy Howard TangyeLocated in London, GBHoward Tangye (b.1948, Australia) has been an influential force in fashion for decades. Lecturing at London’s Central Saint Martins for 35 years, including 16 years as head of BA Womenswear. There, he tutored many contemporary greats, including John Galliano, Stella McCartney, Christopher Kane, Wes Gordon, Zac Posen and Hussein Chalayan. Examples of Tangye’s portraits are held in many important collections, both public and private, including the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A), Harvard University and London’s National Portrait Gallery. Throughout his teaching career Tangye quietly developed a particularly idiosyncratic art practice. By employing a decisive line with bold applications of richly layered materials, Tangye explores the nuances of the human form in an effort to expose his subjects’ true essence and energy. — Howard Tangye Craig (Richard's Friend - Sitting - Blue Jacket), 2012 Mixed media on grey...Category
