Gallerist Jennifer Kosharek and Ria Vanden End are telling cancer where to go with their art show called "F The Big C". Well its not really "F" but you know what we mean. Jennifer owns the gallery and Ria is a cancer survivor and an artist and they're visiting "Daytime" to tell us all about this fantastic concept.
Gallerist Jennifer Kosharek and Ria Vanden Eynde are organizing a group show F**K the big C! next September at Jennifer's gallery eve-N-odd gallery with works by survivors Betty Esperanza, Branka Djordjevic and Ria Vanden Eynde. We're showing how cancer affects our individual art making practice while doing our small bit for raising cancer awareness.
Betty Esperanza, Branka Djordjevic and Ria Vanden Eynde will show works at the eve-N-odd Gallery, 645 Central Avenue #11, St. Petersburg, FL 33701, USA in September this year. We plan a long summer of promoting the show so as to make it count beyond a gallery exhibition, to get the message across that while we are changed by cancer and so is our individual art making practice; we emerge as stronger women and artists. All three we feel enriched by the experience and are decided to Live our Art Life to the fullest. That's how we're giving cancer the middle finger.
F**K THE BIG C! show runs through September, opens September 8 with live performances, Gallery Walk on September 10. Donations go to local cancer support projects. For every one of her sold prints, Ria Vanden Eynde will donate $40 to myhopechest.org, an npo helping uninsured breast cancer survivors afford breast reconstruction surgery. The signed prints are available for pre-order via Ria Vanden Eynde.
