The sequel of Vesalius Continuum 2014
What began as a poetic quest for the lost grave of the father of human anatomy, has evolved into a well documented fresh appraisal of some of the mysteries in the last months of the life of Andreas Vesalius, exactly 450 years after his death, 500 years after his birth. In their exciting search, biomedical artist Pascale Pollier and Theo Dirix, consul at the Embassy of Belgium in Athens have been advised and supported by the eminences grises of Vesalius Research: Omer Steeno, Maurice Biesbrouck and Theodoor Goddeeris, who found and rediscovered historical sources that erode many fairy tales about Vesalius' biography.
