Meet New York-based artist Reginald Sylvester II at Kemper Museum.

Artist Talk & Reception Reginald Sylvester II: Green Gate

Bar Opens 5 p.m.  |  Artist talk 6 p.m.  | Reception 7 p.m.

Join us for an evening celebrating the new exhibition Reginald Sylvester II: Green Gate with an artist talk by New York-based artist Reginald Sylvester II (born North Carolina, 1987, lives and works in Brooklyn, NY), followed by an opening reception.

Green Gate is a solo exhibition that brings together paintings, drawing, and sculpture that draw inspiration from abstract expressionism, contemporary design, and theological traditions. Sylvester's working process follows a trajectory from muse to mark making. Taking meditative walks around New York City with an open mindset led Sylvester to a green gate from which ideas about passage, Black bodies, radiated green light, and spiritual resonance are explored in his recent abstract work.
