The Abstract Vision of Power Boothe

Power Boothe is an American painter and printmaker known for his abstract works.

He has designed sets for experimental theatre, dance, and video productions, and has produced short films and visual theater. His multidisciplinary career includes art directing and designing for internationally-recognized music videos and Obie Award-winning productions.
