Deep Down Trauma Hounds, a new five-channel video piece of mine, is currently on display in the annual group exhibition at The Studios Inc. exhibition space. The piece contains appropriated video clips from 1970s European horror films which create an unsettling, ritualistic experience. The piece will be on view through February 2012.

Artboards in KC Star

I just found out that there was a nice little write-up about my MOBank Artboards by Alice Thorson in the Kansas City Star back in September. Here’s an excerpt from the article…

“Anderson, a member of the art faculty at UMKC, is on a roll this season, with works on view in the “Thee & Me” exhibits at both the Epsten and Greenlease Galleries. He will also have two videos in the Kemper Museum‘s “The Big Reveal” show, opening Sept. 23.

On the west-facing “Artboards” at the Missouri Bank Crossroads branch, 125 Southwest Blvd., Anderson will show two images from his new video “Junk Yard.” Featuring fragments of people, animals and objects drawn from mid-20th century advertising, the works tap consumer nostalgia for an earlier more prosperous America.”
