Hurvin Anderson (b. 1965) is a British painter. He was born in Birmingham, United Kingdom, to parents of Jamaican origin, and was educated at Wimbledon College of Art and The Royal College of Art, both in London. Anderson often works from photographs and his own memories to create works that range from delicate paintings on vellum to large canvases that can consume an entire wall. His paintings and works on paper “depict places where memory and history converge” and engage with issues of identity and representation. His depictions of lush Caribbean landscapes and urban barbershops explore themes of memory, place and the indelible connection between the two.
