This event has ended.

Louis K. Meisel Gallery, and Bernarducci.Meisel.Gallery, announce lightpaintings, the New York City solo exhibition debut of artist Stephen Knapp who infuses his works with vibrant colors and creates art that interacts with and is transformed by light. Knapp will display these unique light-based installations where he harnesses white light and directs it through an intricate network of shaped & polished glass to create complex, eye-catching abstractions.

Existing somewhere between sculpture and painting, his work’s inability to be categorized is part of what makes the pieces so fascinating. Knapp has been experimenting with light throughout his career. Beginning as a photographer, he recorded and transformed light through his camera lens. Over time, his work has manifested itself in a variety of mediums and focused more exclusively on the unique properties of light. Knapp infuses his pieces with vibrant colors, transforming white light into pure color through a series of coated safety glass pieces and each installation takes on a new life depending on where it is displayed, exceeding its physical dimensions to create depth.
