Anderson Gallery

Last Wednesday I went with my intermediate photo class to the Anderson Gallery to look at the student show. Some of the stuff chosen for the show was pretty bogus but some of it was really good. I really enjoyed a lot of the film entries. I preferred the ones that were more humorous and light hearted, than the ones that were so serious. I also liked these two photographs that were photomontages. One was of a nude male and the other a nude female, and they were both pressed up against glass when the photographs were taken. The pictures remind me of David Hockney, with his photomontages and some of Jenny Saville's paintings where she painted people who were pressed up against glass, showing distortion.
