Bradley Wood Regina Saskatchewan, Canada, b. 1970

Biography

Bradley Wood was born in Regina, Canada, in 1970, and lives and works in New York.

He studied at the Rhode Island School of Design, the California Institute of the Arts, and the Centre d’Art de Montreux in Switzerland. He has received the Moth Art Prize and completed the Woolworth Residency at the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, among other distinctions.

 

His paintings express ambivalence toward the current human condition. The interiors in his works suggest privilege and comfort, yet he presents them from a perspective that implies not everything is as it seems beneath their lavishly painted surfaces. There is a subtle social critique in the way Wood combines style and subject matter.

 

He has held solo exhibitions in New York and Toronto at Angell Gallery, Parts Gallery, Saatchi Art, and the Los Angeles Metropolitan Medical Center, among others. He has participated in group exhibitions at the Exit Art Biennial II, New York; the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, New York; and in various art fairs such as Art Southampton, Pulse NYC, and Art Toronto.
