Critics’ darling Nolan is back with speakers, exposed wiring, chipboard and other “discarded cultural artifacts and everyday materials.”

Rainey Knudson is the founder and director of Glasstire. After working on a print magazine about Texas art, Knudson launched Glasstire in 2001 as one of the earliest web-only arts journals in the country. Since then, she has built the organization into a regional arts journalism leader that launched a second site, in Southern California, in 2012. She has spoken or written about arts journalism at Emory University, the USC Annenberg School, the National Endowment for the Arts, and other places. She has an undergraduate degree in literature from Rice University and an MBA in entrepreneurship from the University of Texas at Austin. She lives in Houston.
