John Knight is one of the most challenging of the conceptually oriented artists to emerge in 1970s Los Angeles. This was a period when college-level art education was subjected to a powerful critique. The prevailing model of the “teaching artist” presumed a tension between the roles of professional artist and educator that invariably privileged the former over the latter. The countermodel, pioneered by Knight and his colleague Michael Asher, reconceived the site of art education, making the traditional classroom studio into an intensely focused seminar environment, where art teaching and art making were subjected to a relentless examination that would have a lasting effect on both. In so doing, they helped de ne the practice of what would come to be known as institutional critique.
