Sutures, bandages and medicine are the tools that our physicians and caregivers use to restore the body. However, as physicians and caregivers we cannot ignore the power of the mind and the stimulating effect of art in the curative process. Our art...inspires the soul, which in turn heals and rejuvenates the body.

Excerpt from The Medicine Of Art A Retrospective of Public Art in the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation, 1977
