Bernard C. Meyers is an American abstract contemporary artist, photographer, and educator. He is most known for his abstract art and for his focus on the art of printmaking – traditional printmaking, etching and lithography, mono-prints, montage and photography[1] – as well as commercial photography specializing in architecture, environmental portraits and art reproduction.[2] Meyer's work has been collected by the Portland Museum of Art[3][4][5] and the High Museum of Art's Bunnen Collection,[6] and was highlighted in Amy Jorgensen's A Survey of Contemporary Photography in Utah.[7] He was on the faculty at the University of Southern Maine and the University of New England for 22 years, and has been teaching at Utah's Waterford School as of 2021.[8]

Meyers was selected as an artist-in-residence at the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art for the 2021–2020 season, "explor[ing] the intersections of photographic realism and abstract expressionism."[9]
