Andy Petrusevics has been making his anachronistic brand of ideological 
observation and commentary under the e tag for many years. Petrusevics 
has an impressive handle on the processes of television production and 
early 20thC modernist histories. The works are littered with references 
to the TV aesthetics of B-grade 60’s sci-fi, dada-esque typologies and 
contemporary psychological machinations. His video productions — video? 
tv? performance? — in particular transmit an oblique wit that appears 
at first glance heavy-handed and out of synch with the slick narratives 
of soap opera. Yet there remains something abiding about his take on 
the dumb forces of power: absurd, banal and funny.
Andy Petrusevics is “a kind of radio receiver for the broadcasts from 
controlling cultures. He surfs the airwaves picking up random grabs and 
dumps them into a reflector world; the world of e, where all culture is 
controlled.” — Steve Wigg, ‘So You Think You Can e Dance?’ Andy
