Biography
Brad Allen holds a MFA from Southern Illinois University—Carbondale and is an Associate Professor in the School of Art at The University of Montana.
Brad’s work has been featured in many national juried exhibitions since joining the UM faculty in 2005. These are highlighted by: American Diaspora in New Jersey, Sculpture Invasion in Chicago, and Contemporary Cast Iron II in Memphis. He exhibited a solo installation at the Missoula Art Museum in 2007 entitled LooM: Captive Moon and the Freckled Lake Bed. He often utilizes skills centered on the production of objects and installations, but increasing levels of interest in the still and moving image have spurred a body of action-based documents and paintings.
