Robert Bowen
The bastard son of 1000 maniacs, Robert Bowen is a San Francisco based artist who watched entirely too much t.v. as a kid. A connoisseur of bad habits and collector of all things wrong, this “artist” feels it is his duty to bombard you with whatever inane and juvenile imagery falls from his hand. Hell bent on world domination, he pauses only occasionally for Mexican food and Lindsay Lohan movies.
A visual artist living and working in San Francisco, Robert Bowen has been exhibiting his artwork throughout the US for over ten years. Bowen got his start through graffiti and street art, and went on to attend art school and obtain a classical education as a painter.
A 2009 article in the 405 describes Bowen’s artwork as resembling, “.a substance controlled vision or a parallel universe filled with floating skulls and giant spider legs lurking in the background…” It would be an understatement to call the work intense. Bowen’s paintings combine pop culture imagery and photo-realist representations of the biological world.
