PILOTING THE PERFECT MOVE

A recent exhibit just opened at the Spruill is a must see.  Cecilia Kane created the Hand-to-Hand exhibit.  The exhibit is made up of many gloves.  There is one glove for each day of the Iraq War.  She and over 100 artists decorate the gloves.  Each glove has something that happened on that day in Iraq.  Ragadless of what you think about the war itself, you can not help being moved by this collection.  It is a must see.  The info is below:
