Art Auction - Arms Around the Child, Timed
24 OCTOBER 2022 - 13 NOVEMBER 2022Notes
Born in Turks and Caicos, raised between New York and Miami,
Bradley Theodore eventually moved back to New York where his
artistic career took off. Theodore’s beginnings as an artist came
from adorning the streets of New York City with vibrant, chromatic
murals of skeletons depicting contemporary pop culture and
fashion “royalty.” Bradley Theodore is known for his colourful
paintings and prints of fashion icons.
He is a multi-disciplinary artist whose iconoclastic approach to art
can be found internationally, from 10-foot murals on the streets of
New York, Tokyo, and Milan, to sold-out solo exhibitions in
London. Evoking the universality of colour, skeletons, and
celebrity, Bradley Theodore distils figures to skeletal forms, a
confrontation that the artist calls “an act of living”, pushing colour to
express memory, emotion, and lived experiences.
Theodore’s portraits juxtapose the legendary and mortal qualities
of modern and contemporary fashion icons, and the artist has
become a staple in the art and fashion scene in New York City.
Theodore has collaborated with popular artists and brands on
creative projects, including Moët, Rolls-Royce, and Moleskine.
