Very unusual "Art" gallery ~


I attended a lecture at the Arizona Cancer Center's Kiewit Auditorium and was impressed by the magnificent display of abstract art that adorns the walls of the lobby. I was even more impressed when I read about the images - they are photos of stained cell slides used in examining cancer tissue.  To learn more about this "Science as Art" display, click here.

    Amazing that something so horrible and deadly can be beautiful at the same time.

    Wow. I clicked on the attachment to read about it and saw the name of one of my professors. I went to the University in the 80s and he taught me. I love your sight. It brings back a lot of memories and shows me how much things have changed since I moved away 23 years ago. Thank you!
