The idea
Working with a doctor, the agency recreated works by Rembrandt, Rubens and Raphael that show signs of the disease, adding texture so lumps and skin changes could be felt. Breaking the museum's no-touching rule turned the exhibit into a hands-on self-exam lesson.
Results
- More than 10,000 people visited the week-long exhibition
