Artist Statement:
HARRY ANDERSON
My work as an artist has
always been connected with an
affinity towards the found
object. I am an enthusiastic
collector of mass-produced,
consumer goods from the '30s,
'40s and '50s. In the mid
'80s, light, then function
became notable elements in my
work. These works were mainly
rearranged lamp components.
Later, with the help and
collaboration of several glass

elements were incorporated.
This work still utilizes light
as an element but it is no
longer the main focus. Recent
work involves the
juxtaposition of objects that
have ceased to serve their
original purpose. They are
used as components in a static
arrangement to create a new
work. The objects that make
up a piece are elements in a
dialogue, at times playful, at
time serious. As the vision
changes new elements are used.
The flee markets I haunted
through the seventies and
eighties and the consumer
items found there, such as
FIESTA WARE inspired the
Installations, Sculptures and
Artists Books that were my
work then. These days I find
many of the materials used in
the work in the industrial
salvage yards that have been
created by the dismantling of
