More about Grace Knowlton:
Grace Knowlton was a painter, sculptor, photographer, and mixed media artist.
Knowlton began her career as a painter, then created the three dimensional spheres for which she first became known. She called the spheres “paintings in the round” and focused on both interior and exterior space as she shaped a variety of media, including clay, concrete, sheet metal, copper, bronze and wicker.
She studied drawing, painting and photography over the years and integrated these mediums into her spheres while branching out to create sculpture, photographs, and mixed media work independent of the spheres. Knowlton’s mixed medium pieces gradually combined elements of drawing, painting, photography, printmaking, and layered computer imagery. She focused on “breaking conventional boundaries to create dialogues in line and form."
Born in Buffalo in 1932, Grace Knowlton attended Milton Academy as a young woman, then Smith College and Columbia University’s Teachers College. Knowlton had numerous solo exhibits throughout the country. Her work is in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Brooklyn Museum of Art, and Storm King Art Center.
