DESCRIPTION:Howard Gibbs was born in New Bedford\, Massachusetts in 1904\; Eugene Fitsch was a painter\, printmaker\, and stage designer\, born in Alsace-Lorraine\, France in 1892.\n\nTheir respective career paths brought them both to Brewster\, where Gibbs lived in the Cobb House\, Fitsch in a house that he built on Setucket Road.\n\nWhile living in Brewster\, Gibbs's painting style transitioned to the emotional and spontaneous\; he painted to please himself\, applying thick paint in bright\, splattered colors.\n\nFitsch worked at the Cape Playhouse in Dennis\; he also exhibited at the Scargo Gallery. Fitsch particularly used local subject matter in his work\, such as the Brewster weirs and local beaches and coves.\n\nThey both were a part of a group of artists and writers who lived\, worked and socialized in Brewster.
