Biography

Todd Anderson is an artist, master printer, and educator whose research-based practice asks how art can make the climate crisis perceptible as lived, physical, and temporal experience. His projects begin with sustained fieldwork in threatened landscapes and take form as hand-carved woodcuts, pigment prints, mixed-media works, and artists’ books. Anderson earned a BFA from the University of Wisconsin–Madison and an MFA in Printmaking from the University of New Mexico. Anderson is a co-founder of The Last Glacier Collective (2010-present). He is a professor at Clemson University.

A man is working on an art project at a desk, signing a large black-and-white woodcut print featuring a tree and a landscape. The workspace is cluttered with tools, papers, and notes.
