ANATOMY DISSECTED PLANTIN AS PUBLISHER OF MEDICAL WORK 24 April 2014 - 24 April 2016 Christoffel Plantin published in 1566 in Antwerp the Vivae imagines corporis humani written by the Spanish doctor Juan Valverda. This book is illustrated with engravings based on the original woodcuts of the anatomical work of Andreas Vesalius. Anatomy dissected is part of the Vesalius Year and it is a first step in the development of the new Museum Plantin-Moretus permanent exhibition, which will be launched in 2016. Museum Plantin-Moretus Vesalius realized that not only doctors and medical students, but also artists could benefit from his Fabrica. The University of Antwerp, Artesis Plantijn University College Antwerp, Museum Lambotte, Biological and Medical Art in Belgium (BIOMAB), Ensemble Polyfoon and the European Medical Students’ Association make a significant contribution to the 500th anniversary of the birth of Andreas Vesalius with THE ART OF VESALIUS project. www.theartofvesalius.be http://www.museumgeneeskunde.be/ http://www.polyfoon.be/ Programma ‘The Art of Vesalius’.
