Anatomia: An exhibition exploring the art and science of anatomy

Anatomy (from the Greek anatomia) is regarded today as a specialized discipline, a branch of biology that involves the science of form. Yet anatomy has historically played a more integral role in people’s everyday lives, beginning with prehistoric cave drawings that depicted animals in astounding anatomical detail.  

The exhibition showcases the wonderful variety of shapes and structures in the living world around us and within us as portrayed by students and recent graduates of Ontario College of Art and Design, Sheridan Institute, University of Toronto and Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne.  Anatomia aims to inspire in visitors a deeper connection not only with the physical but also with the intellectual, emotional and spiritual aspects of the human condition.
