Couldn't do it without you. Thanks, Einat


Hello to Richard's family and friends. I am so sad to hear about Richard.  I was a student at Cooper with Richard (and Kelly and David etc.). I have so many fond memories. Thanksgiving at Richard's apartment.  He made two turkeys in foil tins!

I own one of his Monaphones, and I believe it still works! I will treasure it even more now.
Greetings to all the old Cooperites!

Richard once helped me blow up a failure of a sculpture - I mean he actually provided and advised the M80 explosion of the thing. What fun. A couple years after graduating I brought Richard a garlic scape flower. The next time I saw him, he presented me with this lost wax cast. The plant veins are perfectly delineated along it's delicate papery sheathe, all is intact.
 A perfect cast, thank you Richard - Molly Welch

Earlier Times


 Richard in his Cardboard Submarine


In memory of our friend artist Richard Knox. We love you.

In 1984, Richard and I traveled around Mexico. Here are some pictures. I knew Richard well and totally love him. I saw him frequently this past year, when he needed my help…but he’ll forever be, in my mind, the sweet friend who steadfastly and devotedly helped me in the long, convoluted process of growing up. 
Love, Kelly
