Sur face : New Works by Margot Quan Knight
911 Seattle Media Arts Center is pleased to announce an exhibition of
new works by artist-in-residence Margot Quan Knight. Entitled “Sur
face” the exhibition runs through May 30th 2009. A reception for the
artist will be held from 6 t0 9 pm at the Center with the artist
presenting a talk at 7:30 pm
Knight is a recent MFA in Photography from the Milton Avery Graduate
School of the Arts at Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson, NY. Her 2008
solo exhibitions include the James Harris Gallery, Seattle, Randall
Scott Gallery, Washington DC, and the Pritchard Gallery of the
University of Idaho, Moscow. Since graduating from Dartmouth College in
1999, she has exhibited nationally and internationally.
Sur face is a series of video experiments that Knight did while
thinking about two things: the relationship between a photographic
image and its referent and the relationship between an image and the
surface on which it appears. That surface, so necessary for the image’s
existence, seems both fragile and impenetrable. These pieces are shown
on monitors (not as video projections), to emphasize their surface.
The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts provides major
underwriting for this exhibition with additional support from 4culture,
The Office Of Arts & Cultural Affairs, City of Seattle, and the James
Harris Gallery.
911 Seattle Media Arts Center is located at 402 9th Avenue North in
Seattle’s South Lake Union District. Gallery Hours are Tuesday through
Saturday Noon to 6 pm. For more information call (206) 682-6552, or
