HERE IS AN EXCERPT FROM THE SCULPTURE CENTER'S PRESS RELEASE:
Working primarily sculpture, as well as film, Anderson creates small-scale works that often resemble models or prototypes. Through her careful adjustments of scale and placement of objects' her works evoke mise-en-scenes - although she eludes clear narratives. Balancing between the humorous and the unsettling, Anderson's works conjure low-fi films or theatrical sets, where the materials employed can impact the intended genre or reception. Anderson's sculptures are prompts for the spatial construction of narratives, pointing to disciplines, such as film and literature.
Sam Anderson lives and works in New York, NY. Select group exhibitions include First Among Equals, Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia, PA (2012); Chat D'Oeuvres Part 2 (2011) and Chat D'Oeuvres (2010), Anthology Film Archives, New York, NY; and Poetry Club, curated by Fia Backstrom, White Columns, New York, NY (2008).
