David Bumbeck Prints and Multiples
American, b. 1940
David Bumbeck's recent sculptures show appreciation for Egyptian, Greek and Renaissance imagery. Additionally, they also put a new spin on aspects of African art, Currier and Ives and a figure derived from an 18th-century Maltese painting. One need not know the specific sources of his imagery, to appreciate the artist's prolific imagination, however, one cannot fail to be impressed by his ability to translate his inspirations and enthusiasms into the assertions of an independent sensibility. Bumbeck was director of the Christian A. Johnson Memorial Gallery, from 1973–85 and has played a strategic role in the growth and development of their art collection. He has exhibited widely in the US and abroad, with solo exhibitions at Dartmouth College, the University of Northern Arizona, Flagstaff, The Mary Ryan Gallery, New York and the Everson Museum, Syracuse. His works are included in many important print collections, including those of the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the Library of Congress, the New York Public Library, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Carnegie Museum of Art and the Boston Public Library. Listed in Who's Who in American Art, Bumbeck was named Academician of the National Academy of Design, in 1992.

Double Faces, Variant #1
By Michael Bowen
Located in San Francisco, CA
This artwork titled "Double Faces" c.1975 is an original color etching with aquatint on wove paper by American surrealist artist Michael Bowen, 1937-2009. It is hand signed with initials in pencil by the artist. The plate mark (image) size is 21.75 x 17.5 inches, sheet size is 29.25 x 20.75 inches. It is in excellent condition, has never been framed.
About the subject:
Nowhere is the intertwining of metaphysical, biographic and social narratives more evident than in the Café Life series painted in the 1980’s. Though the “series” was done in the 80’s, the pieces really revive the spirit of the Beat café scene, which began in the mid-1950’s and which was so instrumental to the particular spiritual and social vibe of the counter culture. And his Café Life observations continue over his artist life with scenes, such as the ones here, from Los Angles, Bolinas, Mexico and Italy.
About the artist:
Michael Bowen (December 8, 1937 – March 7, 2009) was an American fine artist known as one of the co-founders of the late 20th and 21st century Visionary art movements. His works include paintings on canvas and paper, 92 intaglio etchings based on Jungian psychology, assemblage, bronze sculpture, collage, and handmade art books. An icon of the American Beat Generation and the 1960s counterculture, Bowen is also known for his role in inspiring and organizing the first Human Be-In in San Francisco. Chronicled in books and periodicals reflecting on the turbulent 1960s, Bowen's historical impact on both the literary and visual art worlds is well documented. He remains influential among avant-garde art circles around the world. He started his art career at age 17, when he joined the American installation artist Ed Kienholz in his Los Angeles studio. There he met and joined with other influential Beat Generation artists including Wallace Berman, John Altoon, and Dennis Hopper. Bowen participated in the construction of the Ferus Gallery and Now Gallery created by Ed Kienholz and curated by Walter Hopps. Bowen attended the Chouinard Art Institute for several years during his formative artistic experiences in Los Angeles. In the late 50s and early 60s, Bowen continued his spiritual training and research. He investigated and practiced a variety of occult topics, Eastern philosophies, and mysticism, and his artwork reflected these themes. Bowen is often referred to as a mystic artist. As a lifelong student of the Bhagavad-Gita, Bowen's entire career has emulated the spiritual warrior archetype of Arjuna, fighting for the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution. Michael Bowen moved to San Francisco in the late 1950s, and along with fellow artist comrades Arthur Monroe...

For Matisse (Homage to Matisse through nude and other imagery and iconography)
By David Bumbeck
Located in New Orleans, LA
David Bumbeck creates a portrait of Henri Matisse using that artist's imagery and iconography to frame the portrait. A nude in the vein of Nu Assis is a central part of the image. This impression is #25 from an edition of 65
Throughout his career Bumbeck has been passionately engaged in the study of earlier art and artists, and among his more than 1,100 former students are a number of well known and respected artists who have expressed their gratitude to him for imparting this passion. Bumbeck's art is primarily figurative, with the nude female figure a particular focus. Enamored equally of artists like Picasso, de Chirico, and Joseph Cornell, Bumbeck's sensibility is both enigmatic and mysterious. He is likely to quote de Chirico's "What shall I love if not enigma?" when asked about the subject matter of his own works.

Bonnard ( French avant-garde artist Pierre Bonnard, with dreamlike imagery)
By David Bumbeck
Located in New Orleans, LA
Pierre Bonnard (1867-1947) was a French painter and printmaker, as well as a founding member of the Post-Impressionist group of avant-garde painters Les Nabis. Bonnard preferred to work from memory, using drawings as a reference, and his paintings are often characterized by a dreamlike quality. In this image, Vermont artist David Bumbeck created a portrait of the French artist surrounded by Bonnard's iconic imagery. It is issued in a small edition of 65 and was fully illustrated in "David Bumbeck: Prints" published by the Johnson Memorial Gallery at Middlebury College in Vermont.
Born in 1940, David Bumbeck received his B.F.A. from the Rhode Island School of Design and a M.F.A. from Syracuse University. For the last 20 years, he has been a professor at Middlebury College in Vermont. Bumbeck employs techniques of intaglio printmaking such as etching, aquatint, engraving and photo-transfer. The human figure has been the dominant motif in his prints for over 25 years.
