PRINCETON, NJ Restaurant Dining Guide Announcement

New Photography Exhibit at Gallery 14 in Hopewell Aug 14 - Sept 6

The Princeton Photography Club (PPC) presents an original photographic exhibit entitled “We Are More Than Our Diseases,” running from August 14 through September 6. 

The scope and spirit of the exhibit is captured in the experience of one of the principal exhibitors, Barbara Warren (Yardley, PA).  Barbara is a breast cancer survivor, and recently lost a good friend to ovarian cancer. In “We Are More Than Our Diseases” she explores the emotional journey a person makes when he or she has cancer. With early diagnosis and aggressive treatment, twelve years later Barbara is essentially cancer free. Her friend Ann survived twelve years after her diagnosis before succumbing to ovarian cancer. In her series of images, Barbara examines her physical conquest of cancer, Ann’s spiritual conquest of cancer, and the story of their friendship.

In addition to Barbara Warren, other photographers who will be exhibiting their work include Joel Blum (East Windsor, NJ ), Ilya Genin (Yardley, PA), Scott Gordon (Yardley, PA), Janet Hautau (Princeton, NJ ), Wayne Klaw (Haddon Heights, NJ), Fay Kobland (Cranbury, NJ), Randy Koslo (West Windsor, NJ), Christine Stadelmeier (Trenton, NJ), Vivien Van Natta (Princeton, NJ), and Jon Walker (East Millstone, NJ).   Each artist has his own emotional, compelling experience to share through photographic imagery.

The exhibit, which is free and open to the public, will be held at Gallery 14, 14 Mercer Street, Hopewell, NJ.  The gallery is open Saturdays and Sundays, from 12:00 to 5:00 pm.  The opening reception will be held on Friday, August 14 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.  There will also be a unique opportunity to meet and talk with the photographers on Sunday, August 16 from 1:00 to 3:00 pm.  For all the exhibitors, it is a very personal show as evidenced by the theme and the images.  Meeting with the photographers offers a further opportunity to understand more about each person’s individual path to healing.
