Louis Brawley (1958) holds a BFA in Philosophy from Temple University and an MFA from Hunter College. He worked and showed in New York in the 1990s before meeting Indian philosopher UG Krishnamurti in 2002. Louis began traveling with UG and took care of him during the final five years of UG’s life. Brawley then wrote the book, “Goner,” about the experience. After traveling the world for over a decade, the artist returned to Brooklyn in 2015 to resume a studio art practice. During the pandemic, he relocated to a friend’s farm in New Jersey, where he began creating the painted wood sculptures featured in this exhibition. A recent presentation of smaller-scale works titled Aurora Funhouse took place at Sala Projects at 526 West 26th Street, Room 708, New York, NY in 2021.
