Bishop typically begins with digitized prints on paper or canvas, painting over them with various shapes, colors, and textures, creating abstract forms that seem to float and interact with each other. In certain works, Bishop has used actual brain scans charting the progression of his father’s battle against Alzheimer’s. Mixed media paintings selected for the exhibition ASB: Memory and Loss serve to commemorate Amasa Stone Bishop, a physicist who died from complications of Alzheimer’s in 1997.
Artist Jeffrey Bishop received a BFA from Tufts University in 1973, his Fifth Year Diploma from Boston’s School for the Museum of Fine Arts in 1974, and his MFA from the University of Washington in Seattle in 1977. He received received a 1974 Traveling Fellowship from the Museum School, as well as awards from the Seattle Art Museum and Seattle Arts Commission. In 2010 he was a Visiting Artist in the American Academy in Rome in 2010. Bishop’s work has appeared in numerous solo and group exhibitions throughout the United States.
