About this artwork
Mystery is at the core, combining abstract and figurative work. An unexpected neo-classical moment follows decades of abstraction, after a trip to the cathedrals and museums of Italy and Paris.
The stripes in this series were inspired by a recent trip to Duomo di Santa Maria Assunta, a medieval cathedral in Orvieto, Italy. Anamnesis is meant to suggest an untethering; freedom following millennia of constraint.

« My work is about communication, not merely self-expression. I strive to edify, to elevate, to speak to an underlying truth, in essence, to change the way we look at things. »
Bruce Dean is an experienced painter and draftsman based in the United States whose works have been widely exhibited nationally. Having always been drawn to mystery, he describes his compositions as an attempt to access imagery and an essential aesthetic that all humans share, at a pre-language level. Dean's striking pieces are created using oils and graphite on wood or canvas.
