Roswell Park exhibit shows power of art

A new exhibit inside Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center shows the power that art can play in a patient’s cancer journey while also paying tribute to someone who made his mark on the cancer center.
David Berndt worked in the marketing department at Roswell Park.
Six years ago he also became a patient, diagnosed with stage 4 testicular cancer. Throughout his cancer journey, David expressed himself through his photography.
“We’ve had many patients find art, or photography, or painting as a great outlet,” said Ashley King, Roswell Park’s Young Adult Program coordinator.
Sadly, David passed away this past spring. To honor him and to shine a light on the power of art, the cancer center is displaying a collection of his images in its Community Artists Gallery.
"He was a light, and everybody who knew him knew that,” said Michelle Eisenstein, one of David’s colleagues who is also a member of the art committee.
