Two site-specific, large-scale fabric installations by artist Todd Knopke will be adorning the walls of the Atrium of the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center. The collages will be on display March 28-July 20. The works are monumental, each measuring twenty-six feet tall. “I am most interested in making very large pieces that can transform a space and transport a viewer,” says Knopke. “Floor-to-ceiling, wall-sized pieces remind me of old tapestries that covered brick walls and kept the insides of castles or houses warm.” Although Knopke has created large fabric collages previously, this project is his largest to date.
Deluge was created by artist Todd Knopke as a site-specific installation (on view March 28 through July 20, 2014) for the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center. In this audio podcast, Knopke speaks about the work with curator Mary-Kay Lombino and members of the audience during the opening event for the exhibition on March 28.
