DESCRIPTION:
Lee Noble's second solo exhibition at Dreamsong, 'Lurkers', is a celebration of thievery, of roadies and punks, henchmen and villains who bob and swirl between the relentless churn of culture and capital. Ominous and masked, his Geis paintings -- which take their name from a Gaelic word roughly translated as 'curse' or 'taboo' -- inhabit a sinister ether.
