David Bumbeck's recent sculptures show appreciation for Egyptian, Greek and Renaissance imagery. Additionally, they also put a new spin on aspects of African art, Currier and Ives and a figure derived from an 18th-century Maltese painting. One need not know the specific sources of his imagery, to appreciate the artist's prolific imagination, however, one cannot fail to be impressed by his ability to translate his inspirations and enthusiasms into the assertions of an independent sensibility. Bumbeck was director of the Christian A. Johnson Memorial Gallery, from 1973–85 and has played a strategic role in the growth and development of their art collection. He has exhibited widely in the US and abroad, with solo exhibitions at Dartmouth College, the University of Northern Arizona, Flagstaff, The Mary Ryan Gallery, New York and the Everson Museum, Syracuse. His works are included in many important print collections, including those of the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the Library of Congress, the New York Public Library, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Carnegie Museum of Art and the Boston Public Library. Listed in Who's Who in American Art, Bumbeck was named Academician of the National Academy of Design, in 1992.
