“The Nasher Sculpture Center announces a new series of public talks dedicated to the relationship between health issues and the arts, presented in partnership with the Edith O’Donnell Institute of Art History at The University of Texas at Dallas, The Center for BrainHealth at The University of Texas at Dallas, Baylor University Medical Center, part of Baylor Scott & White Health, and UT Southwestern Medical Center’s Peter O’Donnell Jr. Brain Institute. This series presents the stories of artists who creatively respond to mental and physical health issues through their artwork. By creating dialogue between experts in the discipline of art and those in the field of medicine and health, these programs offer the opportunity to better understand the mind, the body and the resilience of people facing incredible challenges.
Admission to the lectures is $10 and is free for Nasher Members and students. To register, please visit: http://www.nashersculpturecenter.org/programs-events/programs-list/program/id/160 “
