The Gallery at Carillon in Charlotte, NC, Features Works by Joshua Doub and Lydia Musco

The Gallery at Carillon in Charlotte, NC, is presenting the exhibit, Joshua Doub and Lydia Musco: Paintings and Sculptures, on view through Nov. 13, 2009. Both artists currently reside in Davidson, NC.

Joshua Doub

Joshua Doub is a native North Carolinian with a BFA from Western Carolina University and a MFA from Boston University. He was an artist-in-residence at The Chautauqua Institute in 2003 and 2004. Currently, he is the Art Department Technician at Davidson College.

Doub's paintings are a balance between representation and abstraction and the places between landscape and figuration. He incorporates man-made or man-altered structures or objects with the idea of sacrifice in his most recent work.

Lydia Musco

Lydia Musco received a BA from Bennington College and a MFA from Boston University. She was awarded a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant and the Joan Mitchell Foundation MFA Grant in 2008, 2007 respectively. She is the Visiting Artist, Professor of Art at Davidson College through 2010.

Musco's sculptures are made of concrete and paper. She learned to work with her hands from her woodworker farther and learned to look at nature from her mother who wrote poems. She developed an interest in space by studying dance and participation in building houses. The current body of work is about the relationship between object and its internal and external spaces - inside, outside and amid the walls.

The exhibition is sponsored by Hines Charlotte Carillon LP.
