Anatomy Lessons

by Karen Ingham (Photographer), Bernard J. Moxham (Foreword)

Even today universities adhere to a time-honored hierarchy of professors, readers, lecturers, demonstrators, technicians—a structure first established in the European anatomical “theaters” of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. These were the players in the theater of anatomy—though inevitably the cadaver took center stage. Karen Ingham discovers spaces in which the notion of surface is probed and dissected in the search for structure and meaning—to find what lies beneath.
