Photo Exhibit
A CFS photo exhibit called “The Faces of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome” has been traveling to more than 35 venues across the country throughout 2008.
Take a break from back-to-school shopping at Tacoma Mall with a stop in the JCPenney court to see the exhibit! “Faces” returns to the Pacific Northwest from August 14 – 18. Tacoma Mall, located at 4502 S. Steel Street, is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. The photo exhibit is free and open to the public and includes informational materials.
Renowned photographer George Lange brilliantly captured the strength and courage of 8 CFS patients and 2 health care professionals who are experts on the illness.
The portraits were printed on 10 huge banners, each more than 7 feet tall. Viewed together, the banners are dramatic. Early response from people who have seen the exhibit has been overwhelmingly positive, and viewers are finding it not only educational but incredible moving and poignant.
Exhibit Participants
The CFS patients whose portraits are part of the photo exhibit are Brian Bernard, Rich Carson, Wilhelmina Jenkins, Jacqueline Niederle, Meaghan Peterson, Kathy Rabin, Adrianne Ryan and Vivian Treves.
Dr. Anthony Komaroff and Dr. David Bell also participated in the photo exhibit. Both are acknowledged CFS experts, having treated CFS patients and conducted research studies on the illness.
