In this week's tribute to James Quentin Young, I have two newly acquired artworks by the late Minnesota assemblage artist to add to the gallery of his biosketch page, revealing the ingenious ways he transformed odds and ends of found objects into strikingly different cross images. Young expressed his lifelong fascination with roadside shrines in Black Forest Cross, where a recycled carved wooden crucifix stands tree-like against a gilded background with autumnal-tinted wood strips. In Scroll Cross, he underscored the importance of holy writ in faith communities by supporting a cross formed from a metal hinge and wooden rod atop lines of red signal lights resembling the ends of rolled manuscripts.
