Welcome to the Gary Willis Art Archive
Willis is a vertical raider, claiming no language as native tongue and no culture as indigenous. He is a contextualist appropriating visual language and themes relevant to his own personal concerns, as well as his current environment, such that each body of work bears little resemblance to the previous. Willis has no one style. This is a reliable trait throughout all his work.
