New on View! "Wayfarer" opens Nov. 10, 2026

Scott Anderson: Wayfarer

November 10, 2026 – September 11, 2027
Known for richly layered works that move between landscape, memory, sensation, and abstraction, Kansas State University alumnus Scott Anderson creates paintings that feel both deeply observed and inwardly charged. In Wayfarer, forms emerge, dissolve, collide, and drift, inviting viewers into spaces shaped by color, gesture, atmosphere, and a sense of searching.

A 2024 Joan Mitchell Fellow, Anderson will work with K-State art students and faculty to create a limited-edition print, bringing new meaning to the museum’s Gift Print tradition — established in 1934 — as an acclaimed alumnus returns to campus to work alongside the next generation of artists.
