This episode features artist Garrett Bradley in conversation about her work “America” (2019).
 
Garrett Bradley weaves together cinematic and documentary video styles to create films that reflect real-life stories and everyday themes. Bradley's filmmaking is inspired by real-life stories from people in her hometown of New York City; Los Angeles, where she went to school; and New Orleans, where she is currently based. Bradley’s debut documentary feature-length film, “Time” (2020), was nominated for over fifty-seven awards and won twenty, including an Oscar nomination for Best Documentary (Feature) and a 2020 Peabody Award. Bradley became the first Black woman director to win Best Director at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival.
 
Projects: Garrett Bradley opened in November 2020 at the Museum of Modern Art. The exhibition was part of a multiyear partnership between the Studio Museum in Harlem, the Museum of Modern Art, and MoMA PS1. The Studio Museum acquired Bradley’s work in 2023.
