Sulla sua Arte
Bruce Bowers lives
with his wife in Metropolitan Washington DC, USA. He holds a B.F.A. in
Painting, an M.F.A. in Sculpture, and a Certificate of Mastery in Photography
from the New York City Institute of Photography. He has been involved in the
visual arts as an Associate Professor of Art, a Department Chairman at two
institutions, a workshop organizer and presenter, and the owner and operator of
his studio. His work has been shown in over 100 regional, national, and
international exhibits and is in the possession of numerous cultural,
educational, corporate, and private collections.
His first photo
project involved an in-depth visual look at the Walter Reed Military Hospital
Annex in Silver Spring, Maryland, USA. This was done in the days of film and
darkroom work before the digital age of cameras was born. The annex was used as
a rehabilitation center for war-ravaged soldiers suffering psychological issues
as a result of the trauma of their time in the Vietnam War. It was an editorial
project to commemorate the site before it was torn down and replaced with
houses.
Mr. Bowers works
today as a freelance photographer specializing in the beauty of the human
figure and in the creation of narrative, composite images from around the
world. His subjects are treated with tenderness and respect. His intention is
to look for the shared humanity in all of us. His upcoming book, ‘
Poems
’ will
be out in hardcover format in February 2023. A post will appear on his website
as it comes available.
