New drawings.
Taylor McKimens was born in 1976 and grew up in Winterhaven, California, a small town on the borders of Arizona and Mexico. Strong comic book influences and his childhood in a small desert border town lend an edge to the tragico-comic energy of his pieces, and moments of elegant painterliness can invest even his ugliest image with a complex beauty. His comics "The Drips,"and "Good Life" were recently published by Picturebox Inc, and his artwork has been featured internationally in venues such as P.S.1 MoMA, Deitch Projects, and Clementine Gallery in New York, The Watari Museum of Contemporary Art in Tokyo, Galleri Loyal in Stockholm, Annet Gelink in Amsterdam, and Perugi Artecontemporanea in Padova, Italy.
