Looking at the ‘Modern Male’

“The Modern Male III” opens at Bowersock Gallery, 373 Commercial St. in Provincetown, on Friday, July 2nd from 7 to 9 p.m. and runs through July 20th. Nine artists are contributing oil paintings and bronze sculptures that explore what it means to be a “real man,” working beyond the clichés for a more nuanced look at masculinity.

“It’s all about diversity of thought,” writes gallery director Steve Bowersock in the press release. “That imaginative interpretation, that kaleidoscope through which we are slowly, steadily, and gratefully beginning to see and accept who the contemporary male really is.”
