Project: Carol Ann Read Breast Health Center
Location: Alta Bates Summit Medical Center, Oakland, CA
The core of the suite features 20 photographs by Paola Gianturco called "Women at Work," a traveling exhibition of women in developing nations who create textiles and support their families and the economy through this work. These photos were donated by the artist, selected from the national touring exhibition. What gives this Breast Center its emotional impact are the many specific pieces of art that really resonate with women. They are interwoven with the interior architecture, not added at the end of the project.
