Installation
Self Portrait of An Avatar
In 2009, Anthony exhibited two versions of this artwork that used profile pictures he commonly used online atop a wall of Twitter posts from the previous year. The wall extended to the floor where a painted self portrait completed almost 15 years earlier lay wrapped in plastic. He and Sandy Fontana collaborated on a number of works in 2009 including a revamped version of this installation featured in their two person show with Fred Leighton at the Secor Gallery in Toledo, Ohio.

We Are Avatars
“We Are Avatars” is the title of a site-specific social network piece created by the collaborative team of Anthony and Sandy Fontana in several locations in 2009. The work was exhibited at The Fuse Factory, in Columbus, Ohio and at The Gallery Project, in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
