Duane Bousfield
Duane Bousfield (b. 1960) grew up in California making art from an early age. Earning a BA in Psychology, he continued studies in Art Therapy and Painting. In 1995 he moved to New York City where he lives and works today.
Over the last 30 years, Duane Bousfield has cultivated a rich art practice that resists categorization and is admired internationally for the dexterity that unites the disparate aspects of his output. Bousfield has three distinct bodies of work: Abstract Landscapes, Dreamscapes and Labyrinths. ‘Abstract Landscapes’ are geometric playgrounds for the eye, where composition and color are the main concerns. ‘Dreamscapes’ are abstracted dramas of allusive figures entwined with the landscape. ‘Labyrinths’ are spontaneous one-line drawings, often into thick paint - the line can be followed like a roller coaster or seen as a whole image.
Bousfield has exhibited with prominent galleries internationally, and his work is included in major collections around the world including the Leslie-Lohman Museum, New York; the Esalen Institute, Big Sur, CA; and Apple Computer Inc., among many others.
