My doctor, my artist


"A thing of beauty is a joy, whether forever or for a day, and if a doctor-artist can turn you into one, that’s art to me. And if he can rescue a body from serious ruin and a soul from despair, God bless him; he’s as good as Michelangelo. Does he cater to the rich and charge too much? Check out all the drecky Picassos still selling for huge prices at auction. Do all those nose jobs look pretty much alike? Check out paintings in Chelsea galleries these days."

Read about “I Am Art: An Expression of the Visual & Artistic Process of Plastic Surgery,” a new gallery show curated by a plastic surgeon, in the New York Times.
