The Gallery of ARTFUl Medicine at Montefiore’s Hutchinson campus presents contemporary art within the unique context of a medical center. In its vision, exhibiting artists are “encouraged to interpret scientific and medical research and create works of art depicting issues of cultural, political, and technological significance.” As I toured the space last year with Jodi Moise, Director of the Fine Art Program and Collection at Montefiore Einstein, I noticed a sign for the Department of Orthopedics and Spine Center. I casually turned to Jodi and said, “Oh, that’s so interesting! I wore a backtrace for seven years when I was a kid” and she responded, “Do you want to work with them?” Surprised and excited, I said “yes!” not knowing what might happen.
