Photographer David Knox, Durham, North Carolina, 2000

David Knox, fine arts photographer and teacher, is presently showing “The World Below” at the Opal Gallery in Little Five Points. I had the pleasure of taking one of classes years ago. Not only a great artist but all around good guy. I’ll be checking it out tonight.

The World Below Description:
Knox’s most recent project is the result of an six-year exploration of New Orleans, Louisiana in the years following hurricane Katrina. Using a make-shift studio in a flooded servant’s quarters of a nineteenth century Canal Street home, Knox captures images of New Orlean-ians who remained.

I really went to see Vee Speers, “The Birthday Party” exhibit and it was as impressive as I’d hoped. The big surprise for me was the work by Richard Rinaldi. His “Fall River Boys” series is definitely worth the trip alone.

The two artist’s work couldn’t have been more different. And they both inspired me to get moving on a couple of projects that I’ve been putting off for a while. More to come on that.
