Really good show on at Birmingham’s Ikon Gallery at the moment. 

Semyon Faibisovich’s exhibition shows paintings he made based on camera phone pictures taken around the Razgulyai area of Moscow where he lives.

Besides the poignant subject matter, the results are a interesting hybrid of inkjet print, painterly brushwork and a strange electronic Impressionism - well worth a look.
