My class visited the Duke University Nasher Art Museum. We saw the work of a very interesting artist named Mark Bradford, Mark Bradford is an artist who was born in 1961, in Los Angeles, California. He studied at the California Institute of the Arts. in Valencia, California. He has won a MacArthur Fellowship, the Bucksbaum Award for distinction, and a Joan Mitchell Foundation Grant. He is a photographer, an artist, a videographer, sculpter and installs site-specific installations. His paintings, in my opinion were the best at the Nasher Museum.
