‘A Personal Vision’ runs through March 11 in Fort Wayne
The IPFW Visual Arts Gallery is exhibitingA Personal Vision: The Paintings of Norman Bradley, Professor Emeritus, through Mar. 11.

Bradley served 35 years with the IPFW Department of Fine Arts, where he taught painting and art history, including 19th and 20th centuries and his specialty, pre-Columbian art. He retired in 1999.

Bradley has always been a prolific painter, but retirement from IPFW has given him the opportunity to paint in abundance and to visit Mexico often, the country that for so many years enriched his teaching and his painting. He received his bachelor's degree in 1959 from Mexico City College and completed his Maestro en Bellas Artes degree at the University of the Americas in 1964.

In this current collection of paintings, Bradley has brought his abstract, impressionistic vision to not only a variety of landscapes, but to the urban cityscape as well.

The exhibition draws comparisons between landscapes and cityscapes and illustrates the affinity between the two.

The Visual Arts Gallery is located in the lobby of the Visual Arts Building on the north campus of IPFW. Gallery hours are weekdays 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
