Anthony Bumhira, also known as Anthony B, is a young Zim artist completing his third year of study at the National Gallery of Zimbabwe.  Bumhira primarily paints everyday scenes of urban life in Harare.  He has taken the traditional style of Zim painting and made it his own with decidedly contemporary use of perspective, brush stroke and palette knife work.

Recently, Bumhira collaborated with sculptor Gideon Gono on a mixed emdia piece for Artsense 2006 at the National Gallery, focusing on the themes of inclusiveness, power and uplifting messages through images.  Artsense attempts to reveal through art the current social and cultural climate in Zimbabwe.

Bumhira’s work is already in private collections and can be seen at the National Gallery of Zimbabwe and Amazwi Contemporary Art in Saugatuck, Michigan.
