Beginning in the early 1940s, Richard Bowman devoted several years to making abstract paintings about energy. In his “atomic landscapes” of that decade, he used pointillist brushstrokes to represent specks of energy owing from the sun to the earth. By the 1950s, his compositions had become more complex, animated, and luminous. Kinetograph #5 is from a series of paintings in which Bowman conceptualizes the way in which atomic and subatomic energies interact with physical objects.
