Acrylic on canvas, 50 x 70cm
Work created and signed by Gregorio Mancino and Patch Adams during the latter's visit to Milan in November 2009.
Patch Adams was invited to Italy by Omeoart, the Cultural Association of Boiron, for a series of meetings and conferences. Patch Adams' medical approach is well known, in part thanks to the hugely popular film that saw him masterfully played by Robin Williams.
According to Patch Adams the real purpose of a doctor is not to cure diseases but to care for the sick and their surroundings. The health of the individual is linked to that of his family, the community in which he lives and our planet.
This is the last of 10 prints housed in various hospitals around the world, one of which is in Monza hospital.
The series of 10 works has the same subject, with slight differences between one work and the other (eg color of clothes, positioning of the balloon ...).
Gregorio Mancino, founder of Movimentart (art in motion), is in constant movement, performing spectacular performances around the world. His stops include hospitals, homes for the elderly and schools. In 2007 he painted weightless at NASA.
