SPOTLIGHT

The sounds of healthy harmony

Five-time Grammy Award winner, arts/health advocate and author Renée Fleming recently visited the CU Anschutz Medical Campus to explore the power of music as it relates to health and the brain in her presentation “Music and Mind” – based on her book of the same name. This was the CU Center for Bioethics and Humanities’ second time hosting Fleming as part of the Arts and Humanities in Healthcare Program directed by Katie Rhine, PhD, MA. They were joined by collaborators from CU Boulder's CU Presents, the CU Boulder College of Music and the CU Denver College of Arts and Music. Fleming also performed at CU Boulder’s Macky Auditorium.

Five questions for Stephanie Su

As a child, Stephanie Su enjoyed painting and drawing, but it wasn’t until she studied art history that she realized the importance of art in understanding a culture. Now an assistant professor of Asian art at CU Boulder, Su’s scholarship is motivated by a strong interest in the historiography and methodology of art. “After working abroad, I really appreciate the resources that American research universities such as CU Boulder have invested for faculty and students,” she said. “CU Boulder also has a nice art museum."
