- Abstract (EN)
- The affinity between art and medicine is abundantly clear: The classical concept of medicine even makes reference to the art of healing: the ars medicinae. Apart from the terminological origin and the proximity of the medical profession to “art” − equally true, incidentally, for technicians and engineers − it is striking that, even today, many physicians are lovers of art, literature and music. This enthusiasm, possibly felt to a larger extent than by other professions, may explain why physicians often take up brush and pen, or play an instrument − and not merely as amateurs. Perhaps it was the closeness to the human being that created a certain kinship between physicians and artists when it came to devoting themselves with sensitivity, intuition and imagination to the art of living and the state of our world at the interface of art and medicine. Since the Early Modern Period, anatomy has often been the mediator, playing an attractive role in the theaters of science and art.
