Deputy Dog posted these photos of Eglise Saint-Merri the other day. A couple of commenters mentioned the chairs might be left over from Hugo Bonamin’s “Les Chaises” installation for the 2005 Nuit Blanche; the hanging painting, Mein Engel, is also Bonamin’s.

In February 2009, the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art (OCCCA) and Mission Hospital will debut The Art of Imaging, a unique exhibit that explores medical imaging through contemporary art. Combining both worlds of science and art, the images used in the artwork are captured by the same imaging equipment that save lives every day.
Images from Mission Hospital’s advanced technology – including 3-and 4-D ultrasound, mammography, interventional and digital radiology, computerized tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and conventional X-rays – serve as the basis of creation as OCCCA artists mold the images to their own artistic expression.
