Paul-Henri Bourguignon (1906-1988) was a prolific Belgian writer and painter known for his eccentricities. After roaming through Europe and North Africa, Bourguignon met the love of his life, Erika, an American anthropologist studying possession trance and altered states of consciousness, while in Haiti. The air of Bourguignon will touch earth once again with River House Arts upcoming show, Elsewhere, running concurrently with the Columbus Museum of Art’s 50th Anniversary Retrospective of his work. An intimate assortment of landscape paintings and drawings from his travels will illustrate the expressionistic, other-worldly style.
