Hunter Reynolds
Shhh..., 1990/2012

For over 30 years, Hunter Reynolds (1959-2022) explored issues of gender, sexuality, HIV/AIDS, politics, mortality, and rebirth through performance, photography, installations, and his alter ego, Patina du Prey. Profound, beautiful, and ferociously honest, Reynolds’ work was directly influenced by his lived experiences as an HIV-positive gay man living in the age of AIDS. As a member of ACT UP (Aids Coalition to Unleash Power) and a co-founder of Art Positive, an affinity group fighting homophobia and censorship in the arts, Reynolds used his visual and performance art practice to spread a message of survival, hope, and healing, and to reify queer histories so often marginalized, sterilized, and forgotten. After discovering in 1989 that he had been HIV positive since 1984, Reynolds was inspired by the advice of his friend, the artist Ray Navarro, to not let his disease control him. It was at this point that Reynolds “realized that my work had to do with this experience of death, emotions, and that I wanted people to feel, to experience pain and loss, but also to have hope in life.” He has presented solo exhibitions at P·P·O·W, New York, NY; Hales, Gallery, London, UK; Participant Inc., New York, NY; Artist Space, New York, NY; White Columns, New York, NY; Creative Time, New York, NY; and Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco, CA, among others. His work has been included in group exhibitions at institutions such as the Museum of Arts and Design, New York, NY; Henie Onstad Kunstsenter, Høvikodden, Norway; Hayward Gallery, London, UK; the FLAG Art Foundation, New York, NY; the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, MA; Museum of the City of New York, New York, NY; Aldrich Museum of Art, Ridgefield, CT; and DOCUMENTA, Kassel, Germany, among others. His work is numerous public and private collections including the Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, IL; Yale University Art Gallery, New Haven, CT; the Shelly & Donald Rubin Foundation, New York, NY; and the Addison Gallery of American Art, Phillips Academy, Andover, MA. New York University's Fales Library and Special Collections acquired the archives of Hunter Reynolds for its Downtown Collection. This December, P·P·O·W will mount the first posthumous exhibition of Reynolds’s work, showcasing the artist’s photo-weavings and sculptural activations alongside the work of Dean Sameshima.
