Ultra Violet, IX XI

Ten years after the tragedy of 9/11, the QCC Art Gallery was honored to host Ultra Violet, one of the designers of an official 9/11 motif.

Earlier in her career, Ultra Violet had worked with Salvador Dali, Andy Warhol and other prominent artists, and she even authored a best-selling memoir, Famous for Fifteen Minutes: My Years with Andy Warhol.

Today, she operates studios in both New York City and Nice, France, and her works appear in collections at the Museum Pompidou in Paris, the Knokke-Heist Museum, and in the private collection of Whitney Museum trustee, Beth DeWoody.
