Burnell, Bradley
A Mixed Media Artist.
(View Portfolio)

I have studied at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Art Institute of Indianapolis, and Art Institute Online, At each of these institutions of higher learning I was educated to think about why I create, what I create. I am a conceptual storyteller, in form of a sculptor, or a mixed media artist. Not only do I tell the story, but I tell the lesson I have learned at the end. I've kept my work out of the limelight until the perfect time, just as I was told. One has to look deep, and realize what I say, may be in code. Or I may just be trying to say "hello".

The Colonial Revival mansion served as the Connecticut Building, and now houses major artifacts from the Fair. Three massive vases exhibited there by Weller Pottery, including a 7-foot vase that won a gold medal for the Arts, are always on display. You’ll also find works by T.C. Steele and Charles Conner that were on display in the Fine Arts Palace at the Fair. Featured paintings from the Indiana Building include works by William Forsyth, John Elwood Bundy and Frank Girardin. Other major Fair souvenirs in the exhibition include andirons, a mandolin, zither, accordion, telephone, a Majolica statue, a 1760 candle stand that was displayed in the building at the Fair, a blow gun, stereopticons, and a wide variety of smaller objects. Enjoy free admission, music, and refreshments.
