Biography
Born in 1957 to Katherine "Kae" (née Dirrane) and John S. Bowes. He is a brother of science fiction writer Richard Bowes.
Bowes attended Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) in the mid 1970s and has taught painting classes at his alma mater.
His paintings are often brightly colored, with loose painterly strokes and make reference to multiple sources such as allegories, mythology and art history. He has been described as being a "brilliant painter", and having a "delicacy of touch and genuine fascination with the medium of paint."
Bowes' work is exhibited in the United States and Europe. He participated in the 48th Venice Biennale in 1999. His work is held in the collection of the Walker Art Center and the Broad Contemporary Art Museum at LACMA.
