    THE FIGHT

    September is National Recovery Month. Peter's art — exhibited in the ITM windows 331 Main Street —speaks to the hope of recovery. Bellows' work — in the artPARK next door — speaks of intense struggle. He claimed, “I don’t know anything about boxing. I am just painting two men trying to kill each other.” Life & death/drug vs. human — we think this is a powerful metaphor.
