Andrew Guenther (born 1976) is an American artist based in Brooklyn, New York. Guenther received his BFA from Lawrence University in 1998 and his MFA from Rutgers University in 2000. His work has been widely exhibited in the United States, Europe, and Asia. Guenther makes paintings, sculptures, and photographs, and his works often combine elements of painting and sculpture, as he has incorporated items such as underwear, T-shirts, sunglasses, and cigars into his paintings and more recently begun employing papier-mâché and gold and silver leaf in his mixed-media pieces. While Guenther's earlier work, which referenced death metal, zombies, satyrs, hippie kitsch and drew comparisons to painters such as Francisco Goya and Hieronymous Bosch,〔"Mixed Paint: A Survey of Contemporary Painters." ''Flash Art'', November–December 2004.〕 has been called “iconoclastic, demented, decadent,” 〔Mullins, Charlotte, ed. (2008), Painting People: ''Figure Painting Today''. D.A.P./Distributed Art Publishers.〕 his more recent paintings have focused on a recurring “Plate Face” character, whales, dolphins, and more abstract concerns and have been described as evocative of Abstract Expressionism and outsider art.〔Landes, Jennifer. ("The Art Scene: 09.13.12." ) ''The East Hampton Star'', September 11, 2012.〕 In his photography, Guenther often works in black and white, in part because of what he identifies as its documentary aspect, which helps to free his images from the clutter of unintended cultural references.〔Guenther, Andrew (March 8, 2011.
