Mark Bradford

Mark Bradford plays with color and a lot of negative space. Normally the color would distract from the form but it is so subtle that it creates its own grey value, if that makes sense. He is an installation and conceptual artist and “is presented in multiple mediums such as collaged paintings, videos, installations, and sculptures.” (artnet.com)  His work interests me because I am not yet able to create color and depth at the same time without becoming distracted or fall in love with a color, and think it fits when it doesn’t. Color romanticizes my pieces and I think something looks underdeveloped when I add it.
