Through his soulful eye, we (as spectators) can be transported to Havana while experiencing a measure of the energy, flavor, and spirit of Cuban life. James Knill’s images are pure visual poetry.

About the Artist

James Knill uses photography to capture, to record, and to preserve a timeless moment of existence from the physical world. Photography also allows him to express his viewpoint of the world, and to share his inner processing of the physical realm with others.

About the Spotlight Gallery

Cornell Art Museum works to collaborate with local art groups to curate, manage and promote art exhibitions to support and benefit non-profit children’s groups, student groups, arts education groups, art scholarship organizations, and other artist groups. 

The Spotlight Gallery opens with a reception on the First Friday Art Walk of each month and artwork remains on view for the entire month.  

The Spotlight Gallery fosters connection and conversation amongst the artists themselves as well as our community allowing underserved and unseen art to be “spotlighted” and given a chance to be appreciated.

Rolling Stone magazine cited Tony Jackson’s latest single, “Country Road,” naming it among the 10 Best Country and Americana Songs to Hear Now stating – “fiddle, harmonica, pedal steel guitar fill this less-known James Taylor salute to the rolling ribbons of backwoods blacktop, but it’s Tony Jackson’s voice – which could easily pass for Taylor’s classic croon – that packs the biggest punch.”

Since his highly praised May 2017 debut album release, Tony Jackson, the affable singer has already been invited to perform on the Grand Ole Opry (multiple times) and CMA Fest, and has appeared on several important national TV shows.  His initial videos from the album have excited over 62 million Facebook views and 1.1 million shares seemingly overnight while Jackson tours tirelessly in support of his debut album and material from his new album.
