Peter Bulow

The 2009 Chelsea International Fine Art Competition - Collective Exhibition
August 14 - September 2, 2009 Reception: Thursday August 20, 2009 6-8 PM

Press Release

The sculptures of Peter Bulow provide a surreal exploration of human experience – birth, ageing, death, the struggle to understand oneself and in turn to be understood – these expressions manifesting in etiolated figures and animals.  Bulow works in plaster and bronze, recently moving to stone-carving.  There is an element of the gothic macabre to the sculptures, and one feels they are the bearers of many narrative strains, much like those that run deep through Bulow’s family.

 

Peter Bulow lives and works as a clinical research psychiatrist in New York.


Artist Statement

I'm interested in the struggle that we go through- the process of being born, of aging and dying, the struggle of understanding ourselves and the attempt to be understood by others. I'm interested in the difficulty of coming to terms with the incompleteness, disappointment, loneliness and, at times, terror of life. In the last few years I've been carving stone, mostly limestone and marble. I like these materials because they connect me to an ancient past. Carving releases the living being inside the stone which is connected to the living being inside oneself, who needs to tell a story, sometimes a humorous one.
