Barbara Brady
is an accomplished artist whose abstract paintings defy categorization and traverse genres. Brady's body of work has continually evolved in style and form and have been essentially narratives of personal experiences. In these paintings, each brush stroke is part of a story, full of emotion and vitality. After abandoning working from direct observation, Brady's work has become more explicitly gestural and rooted in memory, while at the same time more complex materially. She began to incorporate paper, plastic and cardboard into the painting, to create works saturdated with feeling.
Brady received a B.F.A. from Rosemont College and studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Her work has appeared in solo and National group exhibitions and is held in private collections internationally. She is represented by Isalos Gallery and Yvette Torres Fine Art.
