Joseph Kohnke

MCC GALLERY TO HOST KOHNKE ART EXHIBIT

OMAHA, Neb. – Metropolitan Community College (MCC) will host Hollow, an art exhibit of kinetic
sculptures by Joseph Kohnke, at the MCC Gallery of Art and Design, Elkhorn Valley Campus, 204th and
Dodge, Sept. 3–Oct. 8, 2009.

Kohnke is a nationally-known artist whose exhibits have appeared in countless museums and publications
throughout the United States and Canada. His work has won numerous awards and captured the interests
of thousands. When MCC students were challenged to present about one artist he or she would bring to
the Omaha area as part of a class project, Vivian Kvam chose to present about Kohnke and his unique
works. Her presentation sparked the beginning of many conversations with the artist, who ultimately
decided to bring his Hollow exhibit to MCC.

The art exhibit features a series of simply constructed wooden sculptures that are equipped with electric
motors that blow air and run a mechanical arm. Each mechanical arm holds a harmonica that runs across
the opening of a CPR training mouth mounted to a box. When a visitor walks into the Gallery, a motion
detector starts the motors that blow air though the openings and generate sound from the harmonicas.

An opening reception for the exhibit will be held on Sept. 3 from 5–7 p.m. MCC Gallery hours are
Monday through Friday, 10 a.m –7 p.m. and Saturday, Noon–4 p.m. For more information, contact the
Languages and Visual Arts office at (402) 289-1306.
