    Turning Scars to Art

    Turning Scars to Art

    The best artists channel their pain and disappointment into creative outlets that end up being cathartic — both for themselves and for the rest of us. HIV-positive artist René Capone has done just that with “The Zebra Boy Chronicles,” a series of provocative mixed-media artworks and watercolor paintings that provide a compelling visual representation of the many orthopedic surgeries Capone has endured. The show debuts at San Francisco’s Gallery @  611 Hyde Street, February 17-19; but you can get a sneak peek here.
