Aesthetics of Health: The Storyteller Portraits

The Storyteller Portraits is an exhibition comprised of works informed by the Department of Art and Art History class Aesthetics of Health, taught and led by Megan Hildebrandt and Dr. Susan Rather. The class explored the intersection of art and healthcare from the perspectives of an artist (Hildebrandt), who has creative experience in clinical settings, and an art historian (Rather), who believes that basic engagement with art history can enhance the capabilities that 21st-century collaborations between healthcare and museum education professionals seek to cultivate.
