The work of Stephen Andrews has long mediated the successive crises
of the contemporary world, exploring conflict, social change, and
identity. For more than a decade, Andrews confronted the AIDS
epidemic personally and artistically. Later, his work registered
the impact of the attacks of September 11, 2001, the subsequent
"War on Terror," the financial crash of 2008, and a new wave of
global protests, from those surrounding the 2010 G20 summit in
Toronto to those associated with the Occupy movement and the Arab
Spring. Embedding, layering, and erasing meaning, Andrews's work
creates a triangle, where meaning resides between the process of
painting (magical and sensuous), the represented image (a chronicle
of fragility and resilence), and the invitation to the viewer (to
look carefuly and engage). Published to coincide with a major
exhibition opening at the Art Gallery of Ontario, Stephen Andrews
POV provides a comprehensive overview of the last fifteen years of
Andrews's work, a time when painting has emerged as his primary
area of inquiry alongside a multifaceted approach to production
that has resulted in drawings, photographs, animations, videos,
installations, ceramics, and ephemera.
