Don’t miss the current show at LUMP Gallery on Blount Street. Titled: “Doodle Crush, New work by David Ellis and Kiku Yamaguchi.” The works are all much more substantial and more detailed than the “doodle” in the title might suggest.
David Ellis is the founder of the Barnstomers Collective, who staged an amazing show at Lump years ago and more recently at SECCA, in Winston-Salem. The SECA installation was filmed and released as the DVD Barnstormers: 360 Degrees, wherein a tobacco barn is disassembled, trucked to the SECA gallery and reassembled for a week of painting and repainting and time-lapse photography.
Don’t miss the video in the small room at the back of Lump. It’s a short film/motion painting by David and Kiku and you’ll watch it more than once.

I saw this last weekend and was amazed by the short film. I’ll check out the DVD.
