I think this is it.

float *bounds = this->yourActor->GetBounds();


float Xfront = (bounds[0]+bounds[1])/2.;
float Yfront = (bounds[2]+bounds[3])/2.;
float Zfront = (bounds[4]+bounds[5])/2.;
ren->GetActiveCamera()->SetFocalPoint(Xfront,Yfront,Æfront);
Xfront = Xfront - YouChooseADistance;
ren->GetActiveCamera()->SetPosision(Xfront,Yfront,Æfront);
renwin->render;

This makes the front side of the object visible.
