Healthcare Org 1, 4.15 (R) [FUN] Lesson Four Virtual Field Trip

4.15 (R) [FUN] Lesson Four Virtual Field Trip

Everyone loves a road trip/field trip so each lesson of the course includes a "virtual field trip" to the often hidden places of interest on the web. Lesson Four's virtual field trip is to the Isabella Stuart Gardner Museum in Boston, Massachusetts. Why? Because a poster is in many ways a storytelling device. The content of the poster assignment in this course tells a story about the healthcare organization you created. Paintings - great paintings - also tell a story. And in the case of the Isabella Stuart Gardner Museum, the lack of a painting - an empty frame with no painting - also tells a story. It tells a story of the greatest art heist of all times. On March 18, 1990, more than $500 million of art was stolen from the Museum. None of the stolen art has ever been recovered. The paintings were cut from their frames and the empty frames hang in the Museum. So the empty frames in the museum tell the story of the art heist.

The video provides behind the scenes look at art conservation at the Isabella Stuart Gardner Museum.
