John Bernhard: A retrospective exhibition at Serrano Gallery, Houston, Texas. Participating spaces of FotoFest Biennial 2020.
Blue Marble by John Bernhard is an installation of five screen color videos, part of "AN ENVIRONMENT PERSPECTIVE", a 2018 exhibition at Silver Street Studios in Houston, Texas.
A film by John Bernhard based on his Blue Marble series focusing on climate change, pollution, and the way we are treating our planet.
The background images of the earth originated from NASA, astronauts took them from the International Space Station. Bernhard digitally enhanced these images and superimposed portraits of children from around the world that he photographed over the years. John Bernhard wanted to merge their innocent faces into these perilous landscapes.
DeFrog Gallery marks its thirtieth year with a quiet, assured tribute to John Bernhard—three decades of work shaped by a restless eye and a devotion to transformation. What unfolds is less a retrospective than a slow revelation: images that seem to breathe, to remember, to shift under the weight of time. Bernhard’s photographs do not simply depict the world; they recast it, layering body, nature, and dream into something at once intimate and elusive.
