Peter Anderson, graphic artist and designer, will trace an unusual
typographic journey energetically mapped out against an eclectic
portfolio of clients and commissions. Starting out with typographic
printmaking and the making of artists’ books, his open-minded
approach to what the field of graphics might involve has since led
him through the construction of three-dimensional typographic
interior spaces and now into the area of moving image and the
development of television title sequences.

As well as commercial projects for clients including Moschino, BBC
and the European Union, Peter Anderson’s work can be found in the
Tate Gallery, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Museum of Modern
Art, New York.

His work has also branched out into grand scale commissions,
including an installation of poles around the perimeter of the island
of St Lucia for the St Lucia Fine Art gallery; a series of
installations for Puma Sportswear in London; and both interior design
and installations for Paul and Jeanne Rankin’s series of Belfast
restaurants. He is currently exploring the graphic use of large scale
light sculptures in the branding for Altnagelvin Hospital in
Londonderry, Northern Ireland.

Current television projects (mainly for title sequences) include: The
Whistleblowers (ITV1), The Castleford Project (Channel 4), Five Days
( BBC 1) and Primeval (ITV1). He contributed to The new hand made
graphics (Rotovision), a publication which significantly increased
public awareness of his work and for which is he is still best known.
Finally, for his sins, he is preferred design partner at EMI records;
web projects range from Genesis and Pink Floyd to the current Spice
Girls reunion site.
