Bradley Litwin
Brad Litwin is a Philadelphia based, multi-disciplined artist. Primarily self-trained, his career as an artist has taken a serpentine path through craft, manufacturing, multimedia production, music, and the fine arts. Through it all, he has been making machinery of one kind or another for over forty years. Beginning with model-making as a child; then teaching himself guitar making as a teenager, Litwin has always asserted his destiny as an unconventional independent. Taking non-traditional career paths, without benefit of formal credentials, he has nonetheless enjoyed remarkable success in several professions including: medical product manufacturing design, museum exhibit design and fabrication, electronics manufacturing equipment design, automation, and prototyping, 3D animation, graphic design, interactive multimedia production, and musical performance.
