"Tide Pool," Robert Bharda (Ward) (c) 2016 Alluring, captivating, powerful...a kaleidoscope of intricate colors....complexity resting in simplicity. These words and phrases can define the work of Robert Bharda (Ward.)  Or, we can define his work as just remarkable.      View Robert Bharda’s photography exhibit featured in aaduna’s Penalver Gallery in the summer/fall 2015 issue :  http://aaduna.org/summerfall2015/gallery/penalver-gallery/ However, we define his visual work, to know him, is to listen to his words, and observe the wit that he brings to his photos.   Robert Bharda (Ward) photo provided Robert Bharda (Ward) photo provided Robert Bharda (Ward) photo provided Robert Bharda (Ward) - "Selfie"  Photo Provided Robert took the time to chat with bill berry via aaduna's " Conversations "    ENJOY! http://aaduna.org/summerfall2015/conversations/conversation-with-robert-bha...

Just can't get enough of bill berry!?

I guess we all like it better when bill goes underground and pursues his out of the public eye hibernation.  And yet, he has become somewhat of a "in the moment" media darling, and a willing and active participant we might add, in promoting the BLACKOUT racist memorabilia exhibition at ArtRage in Syracuse, NY.  Now, do you think his availability to the media is because it is his collection or is there a more profound objective such as trying to shift the public's thinking pertaining to matters of race and culture that he is pushing?  You decide.  All we know is that homeboy has another print interview that just came out and we may share that article in another posting...maybe!  Here is the link to a short radio interview and make sure you see the slideshow that is part of the reporter's narrative: http://waer.org/post/artrage-exhibit-features-artifacts-distorted-perceptions-african-americans ​ Now...Lisa Brennan prepared...
