Seeing in Art and Medicine: A Conversation

Join Harvard Art Museums for a lively conversation about the exhibition "Seeing in Art and Medicine" and the museums’ medical humanities program that inspired it. Presenters include the program’s founders, Hyewon Hyun and David Odo, and exhibition curator Jen Thum. The talk will also include interactive segments based on the work of the program. Before the discussion, guests are invited to visit the exhibition on Level 3. Admission is free, but seating is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. The lecture will take place in Menschel Hall, Lower Level. Doors will open for seating at 5:30pm.

"Seeing in Art and Medicine," on view from Saturday, Sept. 2–Saturday, Dec. 30, invites visitors to consider the medical program’s themes of narrative, objectivity, embodiment, empathy, power, ambiguity and care through works from across the collections. Explore big human questions and close-looking activities in an interactive setting.
