Want to see more of The Gravity of Light? This stunning book published by Axio features work from Bill Armstrong, one of BMoCA's exhibiting artists this Fall.
Over the last 25 years, Bill Armstrong has pioneered the unique approach of blurring appropriated images—a medium at the intersection of photography, painting and collage. All a Blur presents some 300 pulsating color images that offer alternate visions of history, religion and philosophy. Armstrong’s photographs range from mysterious falling figures sourced from the Renaissance to vibrating color spheres akin to Buddhist mandalas.He transforms these into visual objects that have a certain hypnotic, ethereal quality to them.
Bill Armstrong is a New York based fine art photographer who has been shooting in color for over 30 years. Armstrong has exhibited both in the U.S. and internationally, with recent presentations at the Vatican Museum, the Norton Museum of Art, the US Consulate in Mumbai, Hackelbury Fine Art in London, Dolby Chadwick Gallery in San Francisco, and the Houston Center for Photography. He is on the faculty at the International Center of Photography and the School of Visual Arts.
