Employment Opportunities: Biennale Show

employment opportunities: His Biennale show, Tomorrow is Another Day, examines both allegorically and autobiographically what it is to be marginalized, part of a trend at the Biennale of artists engaging with communities on the fringe, according to Brandon Sun. But it is more than that for Bradford. Often they mix, as at the 57th Venice Biennale where he is representing the United States. Alongside his Biennale show, the Los Angeles-based artist is launching a six-year collaboration with a Venice non-profit that provides employment opportunities at a local prison. While some artists may opt for the bubble where art speaks for itself, not Bradford. His project, an extension of programs in Los Angeles with foster children and engagements in other cities where he's produced art, involves helping female inmates make artisanal products to sell at a Venice shop.
