考陶德開放時間 – Episode Two: Art and Wellbeing

考陶德開放時間 – The Courtauld Institute of Art’s brand new weekly series of Art historical mini festivals – is here!

Over recent years, there has been a growing appreciation of the potential impact that art can have on health and wellbeing. In our second session we will investigate the powerful supplementation of arts alongside medicine and care to foster an environment that improves health — within and with out a healthcare setting. Join Rebecca Chamberlain (Lecturer in Psychology at Goldsmiths University), Sir Leszek Borysiewicz (Chair of Cancer Research UK and former Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge), Michaela Ross (Research Lead, Bethlem Gallery) and Jasmine Cooray (poet and counsellor) in discussions and performances exploring access to the arts in healthcare environments, the power of ‘Slow Art’ within galleries and museums and debate on the subject of mental and physical health and artistic practice.

Huge thanks to our contributors:
