Exhibition catalogue accompanying Medical Museion’s anatomical exhibition The Body Collected. This catalogue brings together a series of new and archival texts by a vast group of researchers, medical doctors, and museum staff. The human specimens are photographed by the Danish artist and photographer Nicolai Howalt.
The human body has been collected for medical research and teaching during the last centuries, and body parts have been prepared, preserved and conserved. The exhibition The Body Collected presents a large selection of Medical Museion’s historical collections of human remains from the 18th century to now. The oldest specimens come from research collections of fetuses, skeletons, bones, organs, and histological samples. The latest arrivals are biopsies, cells, and DNA, as preserved in biobank freezers.
