BIOGRAPHY

Andreas Rutkauskas completed a BFA at the University of Manitoba, and an MFA at Concordia University in Montreal, where he now teaches photography in the Studio Arts department. His practice is broadly concerned with the historical and political landscape in response to shifting technologies. His recent projects have addressed the impact of Internet-based research on wilderness recreation (Virtually There), the duality of dystopia and desire in the suburbs (Suburb Beautiful), and the borderlands surrounding the Canada / US international boundary (Projet Stanstead).

 

Born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, lives in Montréal, Québec
