Opening Reception for Kent Knowles: Passage

This exbition features new works by Kent Knowles, Associate Dean of Fine Arts and Foundation Studies at SCAD. Son of an Air Force Chaplain, he grew up traveling around the world, exhibiting an interest in art at an early age.

While attending high school in Europe, Kent was introduced to the large-scale figurative paintings of the Old Masters. His current work reflects an interest in the technical aspects of traditional painting as well as the expressive qualities of figure, pattern and design in contemporary art.
