There has always been an interface between art and medicine: our births, deaths, diseases and all the vicissitudes of life have at some point been the subject of artists. As Vesalius, one of the most important early anatomists, observes, “Illustrations greatly assist the understanding, for they place more clearly before the eyes what the text, no matter how explicitly, describes.”
There is so much pathology to be seen in the pictures on the walls of our art galleries. In this talk, you will have the opportunity to examine what can be found from the early anatomists like Galen to Damien Hirst, from Rembrandt to Henry Tonks. Art examines life in all its dimensions and endeavours to cast light upon the human condition.
