Steve Burger
Burger taught photography courses at Lethbridge Community College, the University of Lethbridge and Bowman College and provides talks and tutorials for community groups on travel and photography. He has presented art and integrated art workshops designed for teachers and has also delivered arts-based programming for children and youth in Grande Prairie and Lethbridge. His work often deals with religious and spiritual themes and iconography, and in 1982 he was commissioned to design and produce a series of eight coloured windows for St. Joseph’s Church in Magrath, Alberta. His series of twenty silkscreen pictures entitled The Life of Christ were exhibited in Alberta and Saskatchewan.
Burger’s work has been included in group and solo shows in western Canada, and his photography has been published in newspapers and publications such as Alberta Report and Equinox magazine. He now lives in Grande Prairie, Alberta, where he worked as an art and communication technology teacher at Grande Prairie Composite High School.
