Healing art

Más información sobre el libro

How art can make a contribution to the “healing environment” is shown by the Robert Bosch Hospital in Stuttgart with a Germany-wide unique and pioneering art concept. Whether it is seriously ill patients in the intensive care unit, visitors in the public corridors or employees in sterile functional areas: each is stimulated in their own way by the total of 48 artistic interventions. The description of the many approaches and possible effects of the art projects realised at the Robert Bosch Hospital during the period 1998-2018 is supplemented by specialist contributions from the fields of art, design and corporate philosophy. They open the topic of an interdisciplinary approach and offer a view towards the future potential of healing art in an international context.
