“Bicyclists on Raritan Avenue,” a digitally treated image by photographer Bill Bonner, is part of the exhibit now on display at the Highland Park Public Library.

Local artists Rick Black and Bill Bonner will talk about their unique collaboration during an artists’ reception Tuesday, Feb. 23, at 7:30 p.m. in the Highland Park Library, 31 North Fifth Avenue.

The reception is keyed to “Looking Better Than Ever, a library exhibit of images Black and Bonner captured and converted into paintings with digital techniques. The exhibit continues the work they began for the borough’s centenary celebration.

Black, a bookmaker and poet, and Bonner, a digital photographer, will be on hand to talk about their collaboration and sell copies of the cards and books produced by Turtle Light Press, the boutique press Black launched in Highland Park.
