Evan Anderman: In Plain Sight
September 17 – December 31, 2016

Opening Reception: September 17, 2 – 4 pm
Artist Lecture: November 12, 2 – 4 pm

In Plain Sight reveals a bird’s eye view of feedlots packed with cows, fracking wells surrounded by semitrucks, vast wind farms, water treatment plants, gravel mines, and other human impacts that are hidden from everyday view.

“Part of my role as an artist is to shine a light on aspects of our society that people aren’t seeing,” Anderman said. “I think we’ve become disconnected from the reality that it takes a massive amount of infrastructure to support our desire to live in big houses and drive big cars. When you’re on the ground, it’s difficult to appreciate the scale of these operations or get access to them. But from the air, it’s all right there in plain sight.”
