About the Item
This vintage print is signed in pencil on the front of the mount with a title and negative number in pencil on the back of the mount.
What is likely Wynn Bullock's most renowned negative-reversal, the Tree Trunk from 1971 represents the artist’s attempt to communicate the energy which permeates all matter. The reversals by Bullock bring life out of inanimate objects like this dead cypress—light and energy burst from every crevice like the glowing embers of a fire.

Wynn Bullock
Wynn Bullock (1902 – 1975) began his photographic career at the age of 42 studying at the Art Center School in Los Angeles, California. A lifelong friend of Edward Weston, his work and influence thrived in Bullock's photographs and in 1968, he became a trustee and chairman of the exhibition committee during the formative years of Friends of Photography in Carmel, California. Bullock is recognized as an American master photographer of the 20th Century. His work is included in over 90 major museum collections around the world including The Museum of Modern Art, The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, The Hallmark Collection of Photography and The Center for Creative Photography. "Searching is everything - going beyond what you know. And the test of the search is really in the things themselves, the things you seek to understand. What is important is not what you think about them, but how they enlarge you."
~ Wynn Bullock
