Philip Campbell's "Annunciation Lily" (2018) |
Dressed in his standard black T-shirt and black jeans,
Philip Campbell watched knowingly as one of the gallery guests staggered drunkenly from his opening night reception. Then he looked at Ernest and said, “Good luck.” Painter, sculptor, ringmaster, and shaman, Campbell’s new show “Bulletproof” is about safety and protection from a society filled with dangers. His colorful quilts are made from
kevlar, with images like a German Shepard, or a Lily. Campbell is also the
2016 winner of the Alpha Omega Prize, and
voting for 2018 is now open to our followers through November 1st. That’s why Philip Campbell’s “
Annunciation Lily” (2018) is our art of the week.
