ABOUT THE ARTIST:
ALLEN BRANDENBURGER
 PHOTOGRAPHER'S
STATEMENT
As an industrial designer, I find visual stimulation in the design and patterns
of the physical environment. This has taken my photographic work on two parallel
but very different paths. I have always entertained a great fascination for landscape
and landforms, especially places that retain a sense of wildness; but I am also
extremely interested in urban, industrial, architectural, structural and transport
content. In capturing imagery in these areas and in the exciting intersections
where they often meet and frequently collide, I document an innate overarching
order as well as the inherent excitement of perception.
BIOGRAPHICAL OUTLINE
Brandenburger's roots are in the Midwest; he was born in Illinois and raised
in Ohio. He holds a Bachelor's degree in industrial design from the University
of Cincinnati; his Masters degree is from Georgia State University. He has been
active as an industrial designer, primarily specializing in packaging, for over
thirty years. Before relocating to Atlanta in 1977, Brandenburger worked in Philadelphia,
New York City and Chicago. He has received a number of awards in design from
the National Paperboard Packaging Council and holds several patents in the packaging
field. His photographic work has been published in corporate and specialty publications.
