Art Program
The 嘿嘿视频 Art Program and Collection integrates artwork of the highest quality into the healing environments of new and recently renovated spaces at 嘿嘿视频 locations including our ambulatory sites. Conceived by Vicki Match Suna, AIA, vice dean for real estate development and facilities, the program鈥檚 diverse portfolio of works includes paintings, photographs, sculptures, installation art, and murals, by both emerging and established professional artists. The collection is built through acquisitions, commissions, and donations of art, as well as through other visual arts-related programming consistent with 嘿嘿视频鈥檚 mission to be a world-class, patient-centered academic medical institution. In addition to the collection, curated exhibitions of a variety of artworks are hosted at the 嘿嘿视频 Art Gallery, which is adjacent to the Sid and Ruth Lapidus Health Sciences Library at 550 First Avenue.
In recent years, art has become increasingly important to many healthcare environments. Studies have shown that art in this setting can improve patients鈥� overall health outcomes, treatment compliance, and quality of life. Art also helps create a positive environment for caregivers, helping to reduce stress, and for employees, improving overall workplace satisfaction.
The 嘿嘿视频 Art Program fosters a welcoming, healing environment that supports our mission to treat the whole patient by addressing emotional as well as physical needs. Fred Alvarez manages the program and collection. Contact him at Fred.Alvarez@NYULangone.org.
