• “‎There's a lot about art that has to do with healing that hasn't been scientifically explored, but it's definitely helpful for children to be around art, especially when in a hospital situation. They feel more comfortable about being there. Also just thinking positively about everything, which is a part of healing and feeling better. - Keith Haring”

  • “When my father founded St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, he envisioned a place of pioneering research, unparalleled medical care, comfort and hope. RxArt’s contribution of original art works by Rob Pruitt and Will Cotton expand this spirit of community at St. Jude by creating a unique environment of joy and creativity for the children and their families. In this way, RxArt plays an important role in fulfilling St. Jude’s commitment to a culture of excellence and innovation, not only in our research and medical care, but in the quality of the lives of our children.”

  • “Thank you so much for all your efforts in the installation of the new art in Psychiatric Emergency Services. Patients, as well as staff, will benefit for decades. Jason Middlebrook’s transcendental pieces are perfect for PES.”

    Eric Woodard, M.D. Medical Director, Psychiatric Emergency Services, UCSF San Francisco General Hospital
  • All of the services absolutely love the coloring books! You should sleep well knowing that you have made 1000 patients living in San Francisco much, much happier (and their doctors and nurses happier, too).

  • Joel Meyerowitz's work was the first thing I noticed on the first day of my stay (at Rockefeller University Hospital). For me his work was a sign of transformation, a walk into light, hope, healing, relief, and a wonderful sense of calm.

    Patient  — 

  • I can look at Mel Bochner's If the Color Changes and never get tired of looking at it.

    Patient  — 

  • Matthew Ritchie's Sea State One reminds me of the film A Beautiful Mind. I like anything that makes me think a lot.

    Patient  — 

  • Art adds warmth and humanity to any environment. It has the power to transform its surroundings. It is very astute of Rockefeller University Hospital to recognize the value of art in fostering a serene and healing environment.

    Patient  — 

  • The artwork has made the hospital attractive and made the patients feel respected, healthier, and better about themselves.

    Nurse  — 

  • The site where John Monti's piece is installed was previously a drab, forgotten corner. I'm happy to say that is it now a beacon of brightness that welcomes visitors to our ambulatory buildings. At the top of the stairs just off our Main Lobby, it was an important and very visible corner to upgrade. The Blood Donor Center is also at this intersection and was looking for ways to highlight their location. John Monti's piece does this beautifully.

  • Hartwig House, Truro was very soothing to look at while they drew blood from me. My veins are tricky to get at and anything that engages my mind is a blessing!

    Patient  — 

  • I've heard only positive feedback about the piece. It turned an ugly corner into a bright spot. When you come up the stairs and you see that, it feels welcoming. The kids especially love to touch it. Senior management also saw it as a big improvement.

    Carol Stearns  — 

  • These wonderful artists have helped create a warmer, more welcoming and inspiring environment for children and their families at the NYU Child Study Center. RxArt has fostered a creative, playful and fun atmosphere for our patients and clinicians.

    Harold S. Koplewicz, M.D.  — 

  • RxArt, Thank you so much for the cool artwork! It really gave everyone who walked in something to talk about! Wishing you success and strength to continue in your wonderful work!

    Cheryl Moskowitz  — 

  • It has brightened the whole area. That corner used to just blend in but now people notice it. The little kids especially.

    Nanette Dominguez  — 

  • I love the work that you do. As a healthcare administrator in CO and a lover of contemporary art, the healing and joy brought from combining the two is unique.
