Tom McElroy has lived and worked as a conceptual and avante-garde artist in Colorado Springs for 40 years. Tomorrow, the Fine Arts Center Modern opens "Atomic Elroy's Hometown," a video, performance and installation exhibit exploring McElroy's self-described complex relationship with Colorado Springs. KRCC's Aaron Retka stopped by during preparations for the opening and has this report.
