The Healing Garden

Featuring Lady K Fever and The Crane Project

Come Visit Today at The Children’s Hospital at Montefiore!

LADY K FEVER

The last year has been one of turbulence and challenges as the pandemic has impacted all of us. I strongly believe that art is healing, and it is my hope that my art helps in the healing process. The imagery is illustrations of existing exterior murals located in the CHAM Moses campus/ Mosholu Neighborhood. I was inspired to bring this imagery inside to uplift and heal our hearts together.

Please enjoy Healing Gardens, my landscapes that pay homage to Nature and help us all to heal.

ART-C Art in Times of Crisis

In times of difficulty, art, in any of its forms, has been beneficial to me in managing the stress of a situation I cannot control. Art transports me to places where time does not exist and consequently my mind calms down. Being a person who comes from the scientific world, art has always given me a vehicle to get out of personal chaos. This time is not the exception and drawing and painting have helped me cope with this situation. - Wilma Bulkin Siegel, MD

Hugs to Hospitals

Featuring Student Artwork from The Bruno M. Ponterio Ridge Street School

Soon after the Coronavirus impacted their community, students wanted to find a way to help and support the doctors, nurses, and other medical staff who were risking their own lives to save others. The students created pictures and letters to show their gratitude for the medical heroes treating patients with COVID-19. Here is their work.

Sebastian Grade 3

“Dear Doctors and Nurses,

Thank you for keeping us healthy. We all appreciate your work. My name is Aidan by the way. I know covid-19 duplicates in your body and paralyzes immune cells and the body sends too many immune cells. Then the immune cells star killing other important cells. Do you like jokes and riddles? Well if you do, I hope you can get some funnys.

Here’s a joke: Why do seagulls fly over the sea?

Answer: Because if they flew over the bay, they’d be Bagels!! I hope you can sleep whenever you can and get enough energy and eat some yummy foods!!!”

Sincerely, Aiden P.S. I’m 8 years old and I live in Rye Brook. I’m also in 3rd grade.

Louis Comfort Tiffany’s

Shade Garden

The Neustadt Collection

The Neustadt Collection of Tiffany Glass takes its treasures on the road, this time to help patients. The Neustadt has opened a three-month exhibition in the lobby of Montefiore’s Hutchinson Campus in the Bronx. Six lamps, made more than a century ago by the New York tastemaker Louis Comfort Tiffany, are on view for the thousands of patients, guests, and staff who pass through every day.

“The visual arts have a role to play in promoting recovery, and we are proud to share portions of our collection to support the healing process. This new exhibition, Louis Comfort Tiffany’s Shade Garden, featuring floral lampshades with brilliantly-colored blooms, marks the first time Tiffany lamps have been shown in a hospital setting. We hope these beautiful works bring tranquility to both patients and hospital staff,” explained Lindsy Parrott, executive director and curator of The Neustadt.

About The Neustadt

The Neustadt is a premier collection of Louis C. Tiffany’s celebrated lamps, windows, metalwork, and rare archival materials. It was incorporated in 1969 by Dr. Egon Neustadt, an early Tiffany collector. He began acquiring lamps in 1935 and eventually amassed a nearly encyclopedic collection. He also acquired an unparalleled Tiffany Glass Archive containing more than a quarter of a million examples of flat glass and glass jewels. Dedicated to preservation, scholarship, education, and connoisseurship, The Neustadt offers an in-depth look at the artistry of Tiffany Studios and its contribution to a uniquely American chapter in the history of stained glass.
