Tom Bonauro’s work transforms common narratives into brilliant and beguiling icons. As an art director and graphic designer, Bonauro has been employing his alternative viewpoints to an array of notable projects since 1979. Bonauro’s work is in the permanent collection of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and has been exhibited at the British Design Museum, Pratt University, The Cooper Hewitt and Quotidian Gallery. Recent work includes Inbetween, an acclaimed video installation/live theatrical performance created in conjunction with former Kronos Quartet cellist Joan Jeanrenaud, and an upcoming book beforezero, focusing on his personal Polaroid work. The Polaroid images emphasize his penchant for rich atmospheric images that evoke the abstraction of the objective world.
