"With their unique blend of whimsy and provocation, Knickerbocker's paintings become an antidote for what ails us in our fast paced, often frightening society. As people of developed cultures search for meaning by trying to replace the models that modernism trusted and postmodernism mocks, Knickerbocker's art provides us with a paradox that is simultaneously entertaining and enlightening, thus transforming the prosaic into poetry."      Gary Monroe- Extraordinary Interpretations: Florida's Self Taught Artists

"There is a refreshing directness to his imposing work as it welcomes us into a primtive world of juxtaposed situations and environments. This work is at the extreme other end of the scale from classical and academic renderings.  In this regard, the exhibit challenges the museum visitor in evaluating the ever-changing realm of visual art."   -  David Fithian, Exhibition Coordinator, MoFA

"Knickerbocker's paintings may engage the viewer with childlike playfulness, but it is anything but child's play." - Lindy Shepherd, Orlando Weekly
