A photograph by Ken Abbott \u201980 is part of an exhibit at New York\u2019s Museum of Modern Art. The show, \u201cThe Printed Picture,\u201d was curated by Richard Benson and chronicles the history of printing and photographic reproduction. The photograph is part of Ken\u2019s ongoing photographic project at Hickory Nut Gap Farm in Fairview, N.C. Ken was a political science major at CC, and he worked as a photographer for both the Catalyst and the Bulletin. He studied photography in the art department with Ben Benschneider, Mark Johnstone, and visiting photographer Frank Gohlke. He recalls one of his final days at CC: \u201cI ran into Professor Tim Fuller (who was my adviser) in line waiting to order at the Hub in Rastall Hall. We were chatting about my future plans, and he said to me that one day he expected he\u2019d see my work in the Museum of Modern Art. Well, I never forgot that, and I thought that I should let him and my classmates know that it has indeed come to pass \u2013 29 years later.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n
