And that\u2019s the point.<\/p>\n<p>The 21 impressionist and modern paintings, drawings and sculptures comprising Masterworks belong to <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Morton_Mower\">Morton Mower, MD<\/a>, a CU adjunct distinguished professor of medicine, and his wife Tobie. They have lent them for public display from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday through May 24. Masterworks is open to the public and admission is free.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why here?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The obvious question\u00a0is this: Why are creations that make art-museum-curator hearts flutter spending the better part of two months between two\u00a0medical education buildings on the Anschutz Medical Campus?<\/p>\n<p>Simple, Tobia Mower said. \u201cMedical and other students are so wrapped up in their studies that they forget about culture.\u201d Making such works accessible, she added, can help \u201cculture-ize students.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Mowers know medical education firsthand. Before moving to Colorado from Baltimore about four years ago, Morton was a longtime Johns Hopkins School of Medicine faculty member. His co-invention of the implantable cardiac defibrillator and, later, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heart.org\/en\/health-topics\/heart-failure\/treatment-options-for-heart-failure\/cardiac-resynchronization-therapy-crt#.WOK9P4WcGUk\">cardiac resynchronization therapy<\/a>, saved and improved many lives while enabling the financial wherewithal to invest in art. Tobie was a nurse for 25 years with a focus on addiction medicine, and she founded Jewish Recovery Houses in Baltimore. Their daughter Robin graduated from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ucdenver.edu\/academics\/colleges\/pharmacy\/Pages\/SchoolofPharmacy.aspx\">CU Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Science<\/a> and is now a clinical oncology pharmacist at Porter Adventist Hospital in Denver. It was through Robin that the Fulginiti Pavilion exhibit came to be.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10259\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10259\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10259 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27044306\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Chagall.webp\" alt=\"Marc Chagall's painting, &quot;Solomon and the Queen of Sheba,&quot; is pictured.\" width=\"300\" height=\"214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27044306\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Chagall.webp 1200w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27044306\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Chagall-300x214.webp 300w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27044306\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Chagall-1024x731.webp 1024w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27044306\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Chagall-768x548.webp 768w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27044306\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Chagall-150x107.webp 150w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27044306\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Chagall-200x143.webp 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10259\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Marc Chagall&#8217;s &#8220;Solomon and the Queen of Sheba&#8221; hangs among &#8220;Masterworks&#8221; by Ferdinand Leger and Henri Matisse.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>She and ex-husband David Thompson, associate dean for academic affairs and an associate professor at the School of Pharmacy, suggested that, as Tobie put it, \u201cYou guys aren\u2019t getting and younger. It\u2019s time for you to move here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Mowers did. Morton, now 84, was interested in working with CU Cardiology and other faculty on research related to the electrophysiology of not only the heart, but also of other organs.<\/p>\n<p>Electricity\u2019s role in pacing the heart is well-understood, he said. But it looks like putting electricity into the pancreas, for example, and into other tissues can have benefits, too, such as causing to stem cells to migrate to those areas, he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese are all electrical phenomena,\u201d Mower said. \u201cThis is totally new.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Thompson, the CU faculty involved include pulmonologist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cumedicine.us\/providers\/medicine\/david-schwartz\">David Schwartz, MD<\/a> and cardiologists <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cumedicine.us\/providers\/medicine\/peter-buttrick\">Peter Buttrick, MD<\/a>, and William Sauer, MD, Mower said. They all practice at UCH.<\/p>\n<p><strong>L\u00e9ger at the bar<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Mowers brought along their art. They had started collecting in the mid-1990s. Their timing was auspicious. Japanese banks, which had filled their vaults with world-class art collected as collateral after that country\u2019s bubble burst in the late 1980s and early 1990s, were quietly selling collections, Morton Mower said.<\/p>\n<p>They had lent out parts of their collection to university galleries before; Thompson connected them with the leadership of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ucdenver.edu\/academics\/colleges\/medicalschool\/centers\/BioethicsHumanities\/Pages\/news.aspx\">CU Center for Bioethics and Humanities<\/a> overseeing the Fulginiti Pavilion. The Mowers invited them to their Denver condominium. Tess Jones, PhD, who directs the Arts and Humanities in Health Care Program at the Center for Bioethics and Humanities, recalled the experience.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10263\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10263\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10263 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27062454\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Rodin1.webp\" alt=\"This photo shows a sculpture by August Rodin and lithographs by Henri Matisse.\" width=\"300\" height=\"214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27062454\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Rodin1.webp 1200w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27062454\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Rodin1-300x214.webp 300w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27062454\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Rodin1-1024x731.webp 1024w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27062454\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Rodin1-768x548.webp 768w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27062454\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Rodin1-150x107.webp 150w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2017\/04\/27062454\/EXT_04XX17-Mower-Rodin1-200x143.webp 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10263\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">August Rodin\u0092s Standing Faun (1897) bronze sculpture at the \u0093Masterworks\u0094 exhibit of the Mower collection at the Fulginiti Pavilion.

Outside the bathroom, a Degas. Outside the bedroom, a Chagall. And so on.<\/p>\n<p>Simon Zalkind, the Center for Bioethics and Humanities\u2019 curator of exhibitions, was there, too. At first, he said, he was surprised. But then he thought about it and realized that these monumental artists didn\u2019t create their works for the rarefied museums in which they so often have come to reside. Rather, these works were at home in a home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were meant to be lived with,\u201d Zalkind said.<\/p>\n<p>Together with the Mowers, they narrowed it down to the 21 works now in the exhibit. Zalkin printed out postage-stamp-size versions of the individual works and arranged and rearranged them on a printout of the Fulginiti gallery\u2019s floor plan until he was satisfied. The Fulginiti Pavilion soon had its 16<sup>th<\/sup> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ucdenver.edu\/academics\/colleges\/medicalschool\/centers\/BioethicsHumanities\/ArtsHumanities\/Pages\/Past%20Exhibits.aspx\">exhibit<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Art at the heart<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It turns out that the Mowers\u2019 belief in the importance of art and culture to the medical profession dovetails with the driving ethos of the Center for Bioethics and Humanities. The pavilion itself, opened in 2008 and built with $4.5 million in private donations, aims to provide vital doses of humanism to medical trainees and professionals so often swamped in the details of modern care.<\/p>\n<p>The Anschutz Medical Campus is at the forefront of medical technology, says Matthew Wynia, MD, MPH, who directs the center. But, he adds, technology alone can\u2019t answer the most difficult questions facing physicians, nurses and other providers, the sorts of questions that reach beyond what medical experts <em>can<\/em> do and into what they <em>should<\/em> do. Think end-of-life care. Think genetic engineering for enhanced intelligence or athletic excellence. Think human cloning. These are questions in which art, literature and music can serve as vital windows into the human condition, which in turn can help the field of medicine find better answers, Wynia says.<\/p>\n<p>The art such as that now on display in the Fulginiti Pavilion, Zalkind added, \u201crepresents the highest appreciation of what it might mean to be a person.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s more to come in a few months. In September, the same gallery will host the Mowers\u2019 collection of Rembrandt etchings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s great to be able to show it,\u201d Tobie Mower said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; In the shadows of two University of Colorado School of Medicine education buildings one can now find Chagall, Matisse, Monet, Picasso, Renoir, Rodin, and Sisley, among others.
