WAYNE
M. ANDERSON, Professor of Art, is a native of South Dakota
and received his BFA from the University of South Dakota and
his MFA from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville.
During his undergraduate and graduate career he studied his
chosen field of printmaking with seven different accomplished
artists. While pursuing his own work he has continued to participate
in workshops with innovative printmakers and to incorporate
those experiences into his teaching. Since 1979 he has headed
the Printmaking and Art History programs at Wayne State College
where he also teaches Drawing and serves as Gallery Director
of the Nordstrand Visual Arts Gallery at Wayne State College.
He has been a recipient of a National Endowment for the Humanities
grant and was a Visiting Scholar at the University of North
Carolina. Over the years his work has received awards in the
areas of painting, printmaking, drawing, watercolor, and sculpture.
In 1999 he was one of fifteen printmakers from around the
country chosen for Outside Impressions, an exhibit at Governor's
State University. The exhibit's organizer called the participating
artists "teaching professionals who collectively portray
the leadership in university print programs throughout the
country." He has also exhibited photographs and delivered
public lectures on a wide range of subjects in such venues
as the John G. Neihardt Conference and Wayne State College's
Sunday Series.
