Biography - Brandon Bandy (b. St. Louis, MO) is an artist and publisher in Long Beach, California. Brandon’s practice confronts ideas of the virtual, visual conventions, and artistic production amidst the domination of online platforms and erosion of institutions. Often centering site, perspective of the lens, and memetics, Brandon’s works are unfixed, often synthesized from contemporary folklore or metadata and shifting form as they undergo stages of mediation. Brandon co-operates Special Effects, a publishing studio producing art books and editions and organizes exhibitions at LA-based gallery, Timeshare, with Rachel Jackson. Brandon received a MFA from University Of California, Riverside and is currently a lecturer at California State Univeristy, Bakersfield and Fullerton.
