Walter Inglis Anderson (American, 1903-1965), Jerusalem Cherry, c. 1960. Watercolor on paper. From the collection of the Walter Anderson Museum of Art in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. Anderson portrayed a strange and beautiful environment with a passion that resulted in thousands of works of art. Lawrence Campbell, art critic for Art in America, recognized Anderson as a signicant southern artist, writing, “Originality merits him an honored place in the history of American twentieth-century art.” Anderson’s signicance as an artist lies in the visual way he conveyed the precarious balance of nature, a theme that is relevant to the Gulf South today.

Such is the life of an artist who prefers nature to art. He really should cultivate art more but feels his love of art will take care of itself as long as it has things to feed upon.” Anderson’s journals (ninety in all) record the artist’s observations, ideas, and thoughts—instances when, as he remarked, “Everything I see is new and strange.” e exhibition Everything I See Is New and Strange explores Anderson’s astute observations of Walter Inglis Anderson (American, 1903-1965), Blue Jays, the Gulf Coast’s ora, fauna, and landscape in more c. 1960.
