Justin Bower Masterpiece Series
A bold expression of contemporary human identity and technological transformation — now reimagined through the ArtGuitar collection.
About the Masterpiece Series
The Justin Bower Masterpiece Series represents a convergence of contemporary fine art and instrument-level craftsmanship. Known for his psychologically charged, fragmented figurative paintings, Bower explores the evolving nature of human identity within an increasingly mediated, technological world.
Translated onto the sculptural surface of a guitar body using ArtGuitar’s patented Digital Airbrush Technology™, Bower’s work takes on new dimensionality — transforming from static canvas into a playable, three-dimensional art object. Each piece preserves the emotional tension, abstraction, and visual complexity of the original artwork while embracing the physical form and cultural legacy of an iconic instrument.
This series is conceived not as decorative finish, but as a limited collection of collectible works — instruments intended to be experienced, played, and contemplated. The result is a powerful synthesis of sound, form, and contemporary visual expression.
About Justin Bower
Justin Bower is a contemporary American artist whose work examines the psychological and emotional effects of living in an increasingly networked, technologically mediated world. His paintings explore identity, perception, and the tension between physical presence and digital existence.
Born in San Francisco, Bower developed a visual language characterized by fragmented figures, distorted anatomy, and bold chromatic fields. These compositional disruptions reflect the fractured nature of modern identity — shaped by constant connectivity, surveillance, and the compression of private and public life.
Working at the intersection of figurative painting and conceptual inquiry, Bower’s practice draws from both art history and contemporary culture. His work invites prolonged viewing, rewarding the observer with layers of meaning that unfold over time — a quality that translates powerfully when applied to the sculptural form of a guitar.
Bower has exhibited internationally in solo and group exhibitions, and his work is held in numerous private and public collections. Through the ArtGuitar Masterpiece Series, his paintings take on a new life — extending beyond the gallery wall into an interactive, performative medium that bridges contemporary art and music culture.
