Educator:

Born in Denver in 1972, Michael Dowling spent much of his early life as a typical kid apart from being an obsessive drawer. It wasn’t until the age of 25, and after several years studying various subjects as well as working in many fields, that Michael started painting. With that late beginning, Dowling dove full in and began studying extensively. At 28, he decided to sell a burgeoning art sales company and moved to Florence, Italy to focus on painting. He has since returned to his native Denver where he lives and works.

Michael Dowling's work has been characterized as a combination of traditional practices in realism and his explorations of mark, pattern, and color to disrupt that reality. In many compositions, figures presented as portrait, morph into their surreal self, and lone objects tell stories through their subtle positioning. These objects and characters sit in bizarre spaces with intentionally disrupted atmospheres in order to find further meaning within the imagery.

Stephen Prina is an art polymath. Since the late 1970s, Prina has moved nimbly between the disciplines of painting, sculpture, photography, installation, and music. His projects reference art history, personal biography, and musical compositions that shift and change depending on the context in which they are presented. Prina often appropriates the work of other artists, exploring the post-studio afterlife of objects and recordings presented in galleries and museums, and received by critics and historians of art. Through his engagement with these works, Prina highlights the shifting nature of art’s reception and interpretation across time. (less)
