Cindy Tower is reassembling a factory from East Saint Louis, Illinois, inside Haven Arts gallery1.   "Factory" will transform Gallery One with life-sized representations of machines from the Armour meat processing plant.  Paintings will be done with roofing tar and oil on transparent walls placed in the exact same configuration as the machines in the original factory.

Scott Lowenbaum will present paintings and wire sculpture that will provide smaller intimate views of Armour in gallery 2.  These works were done on location with Tower over the past two years.  Lowenbaum infuses his canvases with saturated color from mineral pigments, which he grinds himself. Lowenbaum brings his old master technique and imagination to armor, bringing it back to life.
