REG LOVING
Reg Loving, 2019
|
Born and raised in Kentucky, Reg Loving spent most of his adult life in New Mexico, working as an acclaimed painter and printmaker. Whereas many artists are defined by a singular style, Loving’s artwork exhibits remarkable versatility. His body of work includes iconic New Mexican churches, highly stylized southwestern landscapes, bold collaged monoprints, and thought-provoking abstracts. All of these works have grown from Loving’s constant exploration and re-discovery of his identity as an artist. While varied, the work all succeeds in conveying the artist’s unique and unmistakable style.
A fixture in the New Mexico art scene since the late 1970’s, Reg Loving’s work is widely held in museum, corporate and private collections, including numerous pieces purchased for New Mexico’s “Art in Public Places” program. Reg Loving passed away on February 9, 2025. New Concept Gallery will exhibit a memorial show this spring, which will be on the walls from Friday, March 28, 2025 through Sunday, May 11, 2025. |
