“Chrysalis,” a print by Red Bank artist Nanci Hersh, a breast cancer survivor, will be included in “The Art of Survival.” Selected works of 13 artists who have been personally touched by breast cancer have been assembled in an exhibit titled “The Art of Survival.” A unique exhibit, their art is a testimony to courage and creativity — a tribute to the resilience of the human spirit. The exhibit will take place at HerSpace, a breast-imaging center in West Long Branch, during Breast Cancer Awareness Month from Oct. 10 through 30, and will raise funds for breast cancer research.
The exhibit is dedicated to Diney Goldsmith, who lost her battle with breast cancer this past March, and proceeds will benefit the new Diney Goldsmith Breast Cancer Research and Education Foundation. Several of her works will be included in “The Art of Survival.”
Artists featured in the exhibit include Linda Ackerman, Alaine Becker, Niki Berg, Kathy Caraccio, Grace Graupe-Pillard, Nanci Hersh, Marilyn Keating, Doreen Laperdon-Addison, Arlene Mollow, Lynn Nordt, Barbara Rachko, Carol Radsprecher, Libby Seaberg, Louise Sharakan, and Chris Twomey.
Exhibit hours are Thursday, 9:30-11:30 a.m. and 6-8:30 p.m. and Saturday, 9:30-11:30 a.m. at HerSpace, a breast-imaging center at Monmouth Park Corporate Center I, Building A, Suite 130, 187 Highway 36 west in West Long Branch. For more information, contact Paula Maliandi at (973) 655 9175.
