"Meltdown for Joey Capelli at Donovan's Pub'' (oil), by JEFF CONLON, at Galatea Fine Art, Boston, in the show "Stories by Way of Germany''.

Mr. Conlon likes German Expressionism,  which  he uses here to evoke the mixed feelings we have when we see Greater (and Lesser) Bostonians get drunk in one of their smelly bars. Bring on the pickled eggs! Welcome to Weimar, Massachusetts.
