Bryce Berggren: Assemblage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

at the Julian Scott Memorial Gallery in Johnson, Vermont USA
26 August-3 October 2025<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Vermont State University faculty member Bryce Berggren is exhibiting mixed-media art to start the 2025 fall semester. The artist was born in Cleveland, Ohio, September of 1973. He traveled with his family as a boy, moving from Ohio to Olean, New York to Steilacoom, Washington. Bryce credits these early childhood explorations for deeply influencing his artwork and life with a love of adventure, independence, and travel. He attended Parsons School of Design and graduated in 1996 with a bachelor’s degree in Studio Art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After graduation, Bryce traveled extensively in the American West, seeking adventure, the great vistas of the Hudson River School and the Luminist painters. In this transitional period Bryce worked as a wood turner, snowmaker, letter carrier and painted in his spare time. He credits these work experiences as giving his artwork a competent level of craftsmanship and some great life experiences to draw from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
