Descripción del Artista

Short biography (english) Christopher Knowles (New York, 1959) started playing a significant role in the late 1970s New York avant-garde as an artist (exhibiting with Holly Solomon) and as a performer (collaborating with theatre director and playwright Robert Wilson). As a matter of fact part of the libretto of the world-famous opera Einstein on the Beach was written by Knowles. Although still unknown to a general audience, Knowles was subject of a mid-career survey at ICA Philadelphia in 2015 which will travel to the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston in 2017. His work is featured in important collections like MoMA, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, and numerous other institutions and private collections.
