Bo Bartlett is a Philadelpia-based painter of southern extraction. Born in Georgia in 1955, Bartlett studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts from 1976 to 1981. As a boy, he toyed with the idea of becoming a preacher, and he admits that his first attempts at drawing took place while he was in church. There remains a deep religious symbolism in many of his paintings, although Bartlett says that spirituality is a layer — with cultural symbolism and art history — that he tries to build upon. His works, often stretching well over eight feet in width, offer realism that is enhanced by surreal light. His metaphorical subject matter has in recent years been focused on family and home.
