GROOVE: live Presents DJ craig Smoove Regardless of their size, shape or altitude, breasts are great—and should stay where they are. Ensuring that they do is the work of the Keep A Breast Foundation (KAB), a nonprofit organization devoted to helping eradicate breast cancer by exposing young people to methods of prevention, early detection and support. One way by which KAB raises money and awareness for its cause is through art events that showcase plaster castings of women’s torsos, which are painted by artists and then auctioned off. See some of the breast examples of this art form at Breast of Both Worlds, where art and music blend with passion to create a landmark event, April 29 at the Hard Rock Hotel downtown. “We want to build awareness and education about breast cancer research while showing people that there is something different to do in San Diego,” says event co-creator Pat Eckstein. “This is not the same old nightlife scene.” Models wearing painted plaster castings of women’s torsos PHOTO Courtesy of Keep a breast foundation Art+Music=the Breast of Both Worlds Eckstein’s partner and fellow nightlife guru Kevin Brown adds, “We have art and music and a lot of interesting partners that mesh well together. But most importantly, we have a common goal.” At Breast of Both Worlds, live music performances and DJ beats will amplify the evening’s artistic experience, which features a silent art auction for charity—and cocktails to keep the bidding high. Now Hear This! San Diego rockers, Buckfast Superbee, will explode onto the stage with an energy that has gained the band two recent L.A. Music Awards nominations – Best Rock Album and Best Live Performance. Then, for a decadent audio treat, Slightly Stoopid drummer Ryan Moran beats the rhythm in concert with San Diego spinsation, DJ Craig Smoove. Picture Perfect Gnarly surfers-turnedinspired-artists Peter King (Hurley photographer), Matt Beacham (Fuel TV host) and Chris Pastras (Stereo Skateboards) will display their latest works along with those of 17 other painters and photographers. Local artist Eric Wixon’s live mural painting lends an even grander scale to the event. All artwork will be available for purchase at the auction.
