Join Ph.D. candidate and graduate student teacher Sarah Eisen for a closer look at a work from the exhibition Seeing in Art and Medicine, on view from September 2 to December 30, 2023. Eisen will share insights about a grave marker from ancient Greece and will encourage participants to reflect on the role of empathy across time and place.
Seeing in Art and Medicine 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 try your hand at close-looking activities in an interactive setting.
Led by:
Sarah Eisen, Ph.D. candidate, Department of the Classics, and Graduate Student Teacher, Harvard University
