Explores the concept that art promotes healing through a survey of
work created for the Robert Bosch Hospital in Germany. Includes 48
commissioned artworks by significant contemporary artists,
including some that were created with input from patients. Offers
specialist contributions from architecture and art history,
healthcare design, art and corporate philosophy. Art can contribute
to a healing environment, supporting the work of hospitals and
enriching the lives of both patients and staff members. In this
book, Isabel Gruener, the art officer at the Robert Bosch Hospital
in Stuttgart, explores how the hospital's commissioned art program
supports the complex process of healing. Whether it is seriously
ill patients in the intensive care unit, visitors in the public
corridors, or employees in sterile functional areas: each is
affected in their own way by the total of 48 artistic
interventions. The narrative describing these art projects, which
were created between 1998-2018, is supplemented by specialist
contributions from the fields of art, design, and corporate
philosophy. They explore an interdisciplinary approach and offer a
view towards the future potential of healing art in healing
environments. Text in English and German.
