Artist's Dedication
This book [exhibit] is dedicated to all members of the medical profession who have helped many sufferers not only to endure, but to be healed.
I intend my art to be an expressive way to penetrate to the truth. Invariably, there is more than one side to a story, especially when science and art are practiced in a free society. Satirical artists have always used their art to identify and help reform frailities, something for which I hope sufferers and healers alike are grateful. We all need to laugh at what we fear and nothing today is more troubling than disability and death.
