“Tilting at Windmills” received Nominated status from the Black & White Spider Awards. As on most days, the Ponte Vecchio over the Arno River in Florence, Italy was crowded. Making my way to the edge, I noticed the rower pulling hard on his oars. The wonderful symmetry of his stroke, the whirlpools he left in the water, and his location in the river's center presented an image difficult to resist. The modern city of Florence was established by Julius Caesar in 67 BC as an army base. Its location was strategic and it flourished, becoming the wellspring of the Renaissance and the most prosperous city in Europe. Home to the likes of da Vinci and Michelangelo, it became one of the “Most Beautiful Cities in the World” according to Forbes.

For different sizes or formats, please contact me at: bernie@bernardwerner.org Bernard Werner follows an aesthetic rather than a particular style. His range is from the realistic to surrealistic to highly manipulated images in the abstract. His works have been in juried shows for over 25 years. He has exhibits in a number of private and corporate collections as well as virtually on the web. The artist’s interpretation only begins with the camera since the image in the viewfinder is never what is seen in the mind’s eye. We have at our finger tips a very powerful set of tools from the digital camera to the computer to the inkjet printer to create our art. Using the power of computers and the availability of new materials and processes, it is and should be, a period of intense experimentation with all artists pushing all boundaries. We should respect the past, but forge ahead with new and different accomplishments. More and more this digital amalgam lends credence to Ansel Adams' paraphrase: ‘A photograph is not taken, it is made’. One must extend the darkroom master's ethos to Photoshop. Photography was part of Werner's family culture growing up, since his older brothers always seemed to have a camera in hand. He inherited some of that, starting with a Kodak Brownie and finally reaching an apex with a Mamiya SLR. However, imagination and reality only reached a confluence with the advent of digital photography. When Photoshop V5 came free with his first Nikon, he was hooked. Since Werner's youth, the influencers were magazines such as Life, Der Stern, Time, Saturday Evening Post, Look, Der Spiegel, National Geographic, and others. Edward Steichen's compilation of "Family of Man" as book also left an indelible mark. Gallery: https://bernardwerner.smugmug.com
