Health Facility Art
By Genivieve Redmond
Research has shown that art in health facilities and hospitals can have a theraputic effect on patients.  This healing phenomenon is called color therapy.   Meditation rooms are being added to many new hospitals and art therapy is playing an important role in rehabilitation (both mental and physical). See our reference page, Useful art information, to learn more about it. 
 
The Art Collector has supplied art to scores of hospitals and medical centers. We have put water features, water walls, mobiles, donor walls, meditation areas, chapels, art for the rooms and public areas, and, of course, we have worked themes set up by the interior designers.
We have also decorated retirement homes, convalescent hospitals and urgent care centers.  Each of these projects was unique and all had different budgets. Some were privatly owned, and others were owned by large corporations.  We loved the challenge of supplying art for them all. 
In over thiry years of business, we have encountered almost every challenge in the field of fine art design and supply, and we have been able to work out solutions to them all.  Let us use our experience and expertise to help share some of the difficult work, and enjoy the process at the same time.

  • Over twenty-one Kaiser hospitals and medical office buildings
  • Mercy Hospital
  • Butterworth Hospital - MI
  • Healthcorp: Florida, West Virginia, Alabama, Ohio, Arizona
