Robert Ward

Bradley Robert Ward is back on the pod (listen to Episode 21 for our previous conversation about bball and some of his older work!!) to discuss his research and new work about the Negro Leagues and his own relationship with baseball, as a fan, former player and image maker. Our conversation was timely for many reasons, one of them being that the 75th anniversary of Jackie Robinson signing with the Brooklyn Dodgers was just this past Friday, August 28. Bradley and I discussed the failures of MLB to adequately address the systemic racism that exists both in their past and contemporary existence and how this connects to a larger issue within the US, where BIPOC histories are regularly left out of the historical narrative and misremembered, romanticized or forgotten by our mainstream media.   You can view Bradley's artwork on his website and follow him on Instagram here.   Thank you to Bookman's for sponsoring this episode of Dear Adam Silver.

Episode 57: Bradley Robert Ward on the Messy Process of Making Cyanotypes and His Recent Work About Baseball 

Bradley Robert Ward is a multi-media artist based in Houston, TX.  Ward's work touches on his relationship with the basketball players that have impacted him the most and the culture around the game, both from present time and the past few decades. He uses the techniques of image transfer and collage to recreate iconic imagery with his own hand,  in a way that forces the viewer to redefine where basketball, as an art form, belongs. His work can be found at www.bradleyrobertward.com.  As always, please rate and review this episode!  This episode was edited and produced by Eliseo Casiano.
