Kuehner Gallery: Friday, 12 October 2012

"Mississippi Headwaters: Cohasset" by Quinta Dunn Scott

Quinta Dunn Scott, a writer and photographer, will display photographs from four projects that
focus on places near where she lives in Waterloo, Illinois. The exhibit will be on display in the
Kuehner Gallery from August 27 through October 15.

Artist's Closing Reception Friday, October 12 5:30 to 7:30 pm

Scott’s large-scale projects focus on compositional themes that allow her the freedom to explore
the fall of light and color on the landscape. A self-described landscape historian, she has
documented the changing and sometimes disappearing landscape (both natural and built) of the
places she photographs. Subjects range from the Eads Bridge to the motels, gas stations and
cafés that served travelers on U.S. Highway 66 to the wetlands created by the Mississippi River.
Scott co-authored Route 66: The Highway and Its People, published in 1988, and she published
Along Route 66: The Architecture of America’s Highway in 2000 and The Mississippi in 2010.

Regular gallery hours are 8 am to 5 pm, weekdays. The exhibit is free to the public.
