Curing x Curating• Same Latin origin: curare = to take care
Understanding cure as elimination of illness makes us focus more on the diagnosis than on the person
Curating: selecting and exposing pieces of art – putting them in context
What could be the role of “curating” in health care?
The Power of Diagnosis• Power to the diagnostician:
Ability of prognosis (knowing before) (chance of dying, years of life left, ability to reach milestones, future opportunities on the job market)
The Power of Diagnosis• Power to the therapy provider:
Select access to care Specialize treatment Fend off competition (”not qualified”)
The Process of Diagnosis• “Looking for missing pieces” – a process of ruling out
Did the child meet all the developmental milestones? Did the child grow within the normal range? Has the child presented with other health problems? Does the child have an abnormal physical exam? Is there a family history for a specific diagnosis?

Appreciating Art• What is the first thing you see?
• Where do your eyes go next?
• Consider how the artist uses the elements: colour, texture, shape/form, line, and space
• Consider how the artist uses the following principles: balance, emphasis, and movement.
• Keep in mind how the medium/media, size, and style of art affect how you see it.
• Look again – what does it mean to you?
