Bernard Epstein was born in Grodno Poland in 1910. He came to Worcester MA in 1921, where he studied art at the Worcester Art Museum School. He pursued his art studies in Boston, graduating with a B.A. from Massachusetts College of Art in Boston and with a Master’s Degree in Fine Arts from Boston University. He continued his art studies in New York, where he attended the National Academy of Fine Arts in New York City, studying under the tutelage of Leon Kroll and Herbert Barnett. (2)
He was the Art supervisor for the Uxbridge Public Schools for over 30 years, retiring in 1970 to pursue his interest in watercolors, oils and pottery. He opened an art gallery and pottery shop in North Eastham, MA that he operated for 26 years, retiring in 1996. (3)
For over 50 years Mr. Epstein painted in his favorite haunts: Gloucester, Worcester, Provincetown and Lower Cape in MA; Old Orchard Beach, Biddeford, Portland and Kennebunkport in ME and Palm Beach Florida, Arizona, Switzerland and Israel. During this time he continued his studies, especially in Provincetown, where he studied with Hans Hofmann and other luminaries.
His oeuvre was representational expressionism and abstract expressionism.
Among the many exhibitions of Bernard Epstein’s work, were the Worcester Art Museum 4, the Boston Art Festival 5, the Left Bank Gallery in Palm Beach, Florida, the Trumbull Gallery and the Jewish Community Center in Worcester. less
