Bradley’s two solo exhibitions of work held in November 2005 showcased his most recent work. Based largely on the Burlesque dancers of New York and Europe both shows also included Bradley's signature pieces of long club scenes and model studies.
Dublin 17th November 2005
Terry Bradley introduced his latest collection of paintings The Burlesque Series at a VIP reception on Wednesday, 16th November 2005 in Renards Nightclub
Said Terry, “For me the burlesque dancer inhabits a mysterious, twilight world. She represents an erotic and sensual creature with a dark edge. The whole theatre of the performance is perfect for me to observe as an artist and I found the audience just as interesting as the performers on stage.”
