The Spencer Museum of Art at the University of Kansas is pictured on April 21, 2021.
Cassandra Mesick Braun could not have predicted in 2017 that the health-centric art exhibit she was curating would come to fruition during a pandemic.
But four years later and one year into the COVID-19 crisis, her exhibit on display now at the Spencer Museum of Art, “Healing, Knowing, Seeing the Body,” exemplifies that art is always relevant to the human experience.
In a time when bodies are “under constant threat” due to the pandemic, Mesick Braun and the team at the University of Kansas museum are inviting visitors to engage with art that contributes to the understanding of the human body.
