Ed Andrews’ solo exhibition Random Order features a new series of polychrome metal wall sculptures embracing the tenets of maximalism, “more-is-more” and “less-is-a-bore.” These visually rich compositions combine an assertive palette, intuitive layering of patterns, and the careful application of

intricate details.


Personal expression is integral to Andrews’ process, decoration and ornamentation are celebrated and visual complexity is standard procedure. Using an eclectic approach of incorporating multiple influences and challenging stereotypes, Andrews’ work pushes boundaries and defies established norms while embracing the vibrant diverse world we share.


Andrews’ process begins by cutting aluminum sheets into geometric and organic shapes and applying complex patterns in bold colors. He then stacks the layers together, juxtaposing shape and color combinations to create an oscillating effect. Floating on the supporting wall, the works gain further

depth through the complicated shadows they cast.


Andrews holds a BFA from Kansas City Art Institute and an MFA from Indiana University. He taught fine arts for forty years at Northeastern University, Washington University, and the University of Kentucky. Grants and awards for his work include a Massachusetts Artists fellowship, NEA Visual Artists fellowship and M-AAA NEA fellowship. Andrews has exhibited at the Fuller Craft Museum, deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, and Socrates Sculpture Park. His work was recently installed at Boston’s new Logan airport terminal E for the Delta Airlines Skyclub. He has been a member of Boston Sculptors since 2016.
