Come and Go

This 25 foot by 80 foot mural stood on Pacific Avenue from New Year's Eve until late July 1998. The photography, design and photocompositing was done by Darryl Ferrucci and features Moving and Storage Performance Company and Crash, Burn and Die Dance Company. Now you can see a bit of this mural at the corner of Seabright Avenue and Soquel Avenue (wall of the virtual Rio Theater).
My friend Joan said this about them: "I was reminded of an interesting mural I saw recently driving on Soquel Avenue on the left up high, are two interesting dancers that look like relatives of the wonderful group that used to be in downtown Santa Cruz on the side of the Lulu Carpenter building. They were actual models from a popular 90's dance group here called "Crash, Burn and Die" and I loved getting to look at them every time I walked over to Pacific Ave, but they disappeared when they were going to put up a monstrous building in the former Bookshop Santa Cruz site (and didn't when they economy went belly up)."

There are a number of online articles about the dance group but I haven't yet found a video clip. Will still work on that for this blog.
