John Knight: Works in situ, a work in situ
In substance, “Works In Situ”, proposes a supple interrogation into the nature and character of the retrospective condition, through the re-presentation of a selection of projects created, in situ, over the past 40 years. In its material presence, “Works In Situ”, is a collection of texts, titles and discursive references that are meant to act as historical prompts, from the time and place of their initial presentations. Gathered all together at the Galerie Rüdiger Schöttle, “Works In Situ”, becomes, “Works in Situ, A Work in Situ.” JOHN KNIGHT
Since the late 1960s, the American artist John Knight, born in 1945, has been producing works and projects that operate between the poles of architecture, design, art and sculpture, with the accent on the interplay between the material object and its imagined context.
