Tom has evolved into a talented composer, designer, sculptor, choreographer, photographer, and performer. He conceives, designs, builds and musically accompanies the installations in which he places himself. He then becomes an acrobat, a Zen master, a clown, a body behind a mask or a nucleus of whirling lights and images. Constantly playing with the level of information that the audience receives, his work sculpts light and shadow to create magical images and reflections on the state of being.
Tom Brady began his journey into performance as art in 1970 while exploring the limits of sculpture and performance at both Kansas (BFA) and Rutgers Universities (MFA).
Most recently he has performed a major work Prodigal in Forest Park Shakespeare Glen in Sept of 2009. This complex work was build around ideas Brady had been working with for more than 30 years. Prodigal took 3 years to produce, envolved 21 performers and 35 crew. It came to life because of the generous support of RAC, MAC. Logic Systems, Schupp and Compnay, ISC and many other private donors.
All the performers, co-choreographer Monica Newsam, Victor Zeiser-producition manager, Justin Stone Lighting, generously gave of their time and creativiy to make Prodigal a reality.
He has performed in New York at Franklin Furnace as well as PS1 Contemporary Arts Center. He was invited to perform at the Generative Art Conference at the University of Milano, Milano, Italy in 2004. In September of 2009 he created, directed and performed Prodigal a three act performance in Forest Park, Shakespeare Glen, St. Louis Missouri.
He has collaborated with artist Dara Brady producing a video Face and Hands screened at Links Hall, Chicago. In 2008 he collaborated with one of New Music Circles' founders and international composer Rich O'Donnell.
In St. Louis he has exhibited and performed at COCAs Anhesuer Busch Black Box Theatre, Laumeier Sculpture Park, 3 Sinks Gallery in Webster Groves and most recently at Satori, his studio at 3003 Locust St. St. Louis.
Through Tom's affiliation with ANNONYArts, founded by Beckah Voigt, the Whitaker Foundation has recently recognized Tom's creative energy by awarding him a grant to produce and explore the parable of the Prodigal Son - expected to premier in fall of 2009.
Tom has begun an Art and Tech workshop for 6th to 8th grade boys from the St. Louis Alternative School. Participants conceive and develop their own original performance while learning to program lighting, sound, and the expressive power of performance.
