SUMMARY:Lecture: From Sculpture to Surgery and Back
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening lecture by Dr. Bauer addressing the inspiration and ideas behind his work in ear reconstruction.\n\n\nLecture:\nFrom Sculpture to Surgery and Back: Forging Beauty from Nature with 3D Thinking from Living Tissue to Wearable ArtBruce Bauer\, MD\n6:00pm-8:00pm\nDoors at 5:45pm \nFree with RSVP\n\n\nDr. Bruce Bauer is a pediatric plastic surgeon who is internationally recognized for his contributions to ear reconstruction and treating children with giant congenital nevi. The ear is a three-dimensionally complex structure. Dr. Bauer has worked hard to understand this structure\, to construct it for patients born without an ear\, and to teach surgical residents how to sculpt ears in clay. \nOutside of the operating room Dr. Bauer has a longstanding interest in organic forms that occur in the natural world. He channels his three-dimensional sense and attention to detail into his work as a sculptor and a creator of handcrafted jewelry. Dr. Bauer shows his work in galleries across the US and has been included in prestigious shows such as the American Craft Exposition. \nIn this talk\, Dr. Bauer will discuss parallels between his work as a plastic surgeon and as a sculptor. He will share thoughts on how these practices have informed each other. He will discuss organic forms as they occur in the natural world and his efforts in seeing them\, understanding them\, and recreating them. \n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker:  \nDr. Bruce Bauer is a pediatric plastic surgeon who is renowned for his work in caring for children with ear deformities and giant congenital nevi and for developing techniques in tissue expansion. He has authored and co-authored numerous medical papers and chapters as well as co-edited and contributed extensively to the two editions of the classic textbook Principles and Practice of Pediatric Plastic Surgery. Dr. Bauer has trained numerous plastic surgical residents and fellows. He currently practices at Shriners Children’s Chicago.
