Paul Bowen
Paul Bowen has centered his life around the beaches of Provincetown. An inveterate beachcomber, he collects human commerce’s humble bits and remains, led by his curiosity and appreciation for the random objects forgotten and washed ashore. The artist combines and balances his weathered items into carefully realized sculptures, often to be mounted on a wall.
Fran Bull
At age 10, Fran Bull, wearing a beret as she sketched with her best friend in Greenwich Village cafés, knew she was an artist. She painted, sculpted, studied voice, and sang opera. After college, she planted her paintings in the Photorealist camp and enjoyed gallery representation in New York. Her paintings have become more personal and less representative, reflecting contemporary events and themes. “My abstract art has always borne a relationship to photographic images coming to us from Outer Space. The process whereby I make this work is the cause. Something about setting into motion paint of varying viscosities and colors is aligned with how gasses and stars interact in space.”
