William Quigley’s AB NY Gallery hosts the first-ever Breast Fest Exhibit
Janette Beckman’s photography spans four decades of countercultural uproar. So for Cancer Culture, self-proclaimed punk rockers of breast cancer awareness, she was a perfect choice to feature in their first-ever Hamptons Breast Fest Exhibit. Held at William Quigley’s AB NY Gallery in East Hampton, the exhibit also featured portraits of breast cancer patients and survivors by photographer Bill Livingston, which were painted over by artists such as Quentin Curry, Ramona Robinson and Sami Taglieri. “Hamptons Breast Fest showcases what Cancer Culture does best: using art to highlight the faces and stories of breast cancer patients, all for the greater goal of building a local Hamptons community of survivors and thrivers and raising money to continue our efforts,” says co-founder Beth Fairchild. The exhibit was followed by an afterparty at a private home in East Hampton that afforded a view of that evening’s fireworks, put on by the Clamshell Foundation. – NANCY KANE
