DESCRIPTION:Community Engagement and Dialogue Join us for a conversation in Schermer Meeting Hall at Anderson Ranch Arts Center with Visiting Artist Ben Mendansky. Visiting Artist lectures are free\, open to the public\, and available in person or via livestream. Ben Medansky (b. 1988\, Scottsdale\, Arizona) is a Los Angeles-based artist working primarily in ceramics. Drawing from architecture\, landscape\, and industrial forms\, his practice explores geometry\, repetition\, and the interplay between precision and the irregularities of the handmade. He creates sculptural objects and large-scale ceramic installations that bridge contemporary art\, craft\, and design. Medansky received his BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2010. His work has been exhibited at the American Museum of Ceramic Art\, Craft Contemporary\, Cooper Hewitt\, Smithsonian Design Museum\, and The Pit\, among others\, and is held in the permanent collections of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. His work has been featured in The New York Times\, Architectural Digest\, Wallpaper*\, and Vogue. In 2016\, he received the Maison&Objet Americas Rising Talent in Design Award and was named a Wallpaper* USA 400 Tastemaker in 2025. The Visiting Artists program is a core part of the Anderson Ranch Arts Center experience\, welcoming contemporary artists across disciplines to work on campus through residencies and special projects. Artists receive dedicated time\, space\, and technical support to develop new work and advance their practice. Visiting artists engage with students and residents through studio visits\, critiques\, and public lectures\, creating a meaningful exchange that enriches the Ranch community and the broader public.
