Lecture by Steve Bradley
For Spectrum: 2010 Visual Arts Faculty Exhibition
In conjunction with the exhibition Spectrum: 2010 Visual Arts Faculty Exhibition, the Center for Art, Design and Visual Culture presents a lecture by Steve Bradley, associate professor of Visual Arts.
Steve Bradley engages with time-based media, sound performance/installation, and material culture in his art practice. He explores the boundaries of urban and suburban culture by collecting debris, sound, and images from the consumed and littered landscape. He has received solo commissions and fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts; Sonic Circuits VII: Walker Art Center; Inter-Society for the Electronic Arts (ISEA); Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma, Helsinki; Blauschimmel Atelier, Oldenberg, Germany; Wave Hill, Bronx; and Hull Time-Based Arts, UK.
Recently, Bradley published an article, "ShadowCast: Out of the Dark," in the anthology, Radio Territories, Errant Bodies Press, LA/Copenhagen. His digital images and commentary were published in Leonardo/the International Society for the Arts, Sciences and Technology (Leonardo/ISAST) Journal, MIT Press. His sound work has been produced in numerous CD compilations, including Die Wohltemperierte Kuche, Alien Productions/edition Kunstradio, DISContact, Canadian Electroacoustic Community, and Forces in 2 Dimensions: Untitled, Public Guilt Records. Bradley curated an audio CD, Hysteria, that was published inLink: A Critical Journal on the Arts, 2000.
In 1998, Steve Bradley founded art@radio, a net.radio broadcast project through which he has conducted streamed projects with several artists in remote locations performing simultaneously. He is the founder and active member of URBANtells, a collective that focuses on the interface between cityscape/architecture and urban culture. Recently, he was selected to participate in the Baltimore-Rotterdam Sister City Exchange.
