Work of the Week at the Asheville Art Museum

Jan 25-31, The Asheville Art Museum, 2 South Pack Square, Asheville North Carolina. For almost thirty years, Clyde Jones has been making creatures out of wood with chainsaws, decorating them with found objects. A North Carolina native, Clyde lives and works in Bynum, NC, south of Carrboro and Chapel Hill. He was born in 1938 or 39, he thinks, but it does not really concern him. His property is littered with his works, hundreds of whimsical creatures that he does not like to sell but loves to share with children, teaching them to make their own.
