Tom Quinn Kumpf

Colorado photographer Tom Quinn Kumpf is best known for documenting Ireland in black and white, as if the situation there were ever so simple. His poignant and sometimes funny book Children of Belfast captured the everyday concerns of children growing up in a very screwed-up world. This exhibit, “Dancing Down a Dream,” brings together diverse images created over the past thirty years, including subjects as beautiful and untroubling as a horse mooning over a stone wall. Kumpf is well acquainted with mist, and when a scene isn’t influenced by the weather, he brings his own playful sense of visual ambiguity to his work through odd and wonderful processing techniques. 1500 Jackson St.NE #443 (Northrup King Building), Minneapolis; 612-788-1790; www.iceboxminnesota.com
