Photographer Allan Amato has a lot of  talent and a lot friends–celebrities, rock, bands, fashion icons have posed for him — and puts all of it good use with Illuminate Parkison’s, opening March 23, 2013 at Century Guild.

After a close friend was diagnised with Parkinson’s, a devasting neuro-muscular disorder,  Allan asked luminaries of the creative world to pose for photographs as part of a campaign “illuminating” the disease, pulling it from the shadows and making people aware of the depth and breadth of its existence.  Fantasy stalwarts Neil Gaiman, Terry Gilliam, Grant Morrison and Dave McKean; action stars Randy Couture, Thomas Jane, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and Danny Trejo; and music icons My Chemical Romance and Al Jourgensen of Ministry are just some of the names who stepped in to help the cause and raised lantern, torches, and other light sources to the cause.

Amato’s Iluminating Parkinson’s series has toured the United States,a nd makes it final stop at Century Guild. To further raise funds, all sales on centuryguild.net (when you enter the code MICHAELFOX) through March 23 benefit the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research, plus there’s Silent Auction and eBay auction of Allan Amato artworks benefiting Parkinson’s research.
