Benjamin Gardner received his MFA from Illinois State University in 2005 and his BFA from Millikin University in 2001; he currently teaches at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa. There's something about his work -- the element of surprise when you see all of it, including his sculpture and installation work. The potential for multiple narratives with a few side roads to go down makes for a rich body of work to learn about. Benjamin also curated the most recent exhibition at Anderson Gallery at Drake University: MIDDLESTATES.
