Bradley Young’s work often confronts the political, social and environmental realities of our time, occasionally with satire. His pieces combine captured, constructed and ready-made elements, such as videos and photographs, both stock and found. Writing and directing short films is also part of Young's practice, one starring Katie Holmes.

 

On social, Young's work earned 14 million video views, 180 million impressions, in 36 months. His work has attracted the attention and appreciation of the great and the good, including Judd Apatow, Kara Swisher, Adam McKay, Patricia Arquette, and Cher.

 

Young is self-taught and has a rich background in visual culture and collaboration. He started his career as a photography director for two legendary editors: Ingrid Sischy of Interview and Artforum, and Tina Brown of Vanity Fair and The New Yorker. He later became the visuals director for GQ and InStyle.

​

He has collaborated with a diverse range of artists, celebrities, and public figures – including Brad Pitt, Beyoncé, Kara Walker, Karl Lagerfeld, Barack Obama, and Scarlett Johansson. 

 

Under his brand Agit-Pop, Young recently designed and launched a limited-edition capsule collection of high-end sweatshirts featuring graphics incorporating his art. 

 

Young is Australian/American.
