EPISODE NOTES: Leather Face and Norman Bates and their penchant for human skin is the stuff of horror movies and fuel for more than a few nightmares.

Frederik Ruysch (1638-1731) was a celebrated Dutch anatomist, master embalmer, and museologist. He is best remembered today for strange tableaux, crafted from fetal skeletons and other human remains, that flicker provocatively at the edges of science, art, and memento mori. Ruysch exhibited these pieces, along with hundreds of other artful specimens, in his home museum and catalogued them in his lavishly illustrated Frederik Ruysch and His Thesaurus Anatomicus (MIT Press, 2022). This book offers the first English translation of Ruysch's guide to his collection, along with all the illustrations from the original volume, photographs of some his most imaginative extant specimens, and more. Ruysch was at once a brilliant scientist, a preternaturally gifted technician, an esteemed physician, a religious moralizer, and an artist whose prime form of expression was the medium of human remains. His works were sometimes described as Rembrandts of anatomical preparation; today they seem so strange that we can hardly believe that they even existed, much less that they were so popular in their time. His combination of the religious and the scientific, the painstakingly accurate and the extravagantly fantastical, offers vivid testimony of an era in which science overlapped seamlessly with religion and art. Essays accompanying Ruysch's text and images consider such topics as the historical context of Ruysch's work, the paradox of an artist of death whose work engenders the illusion of life, the conservation of Ruysch's specimens, and the shifting ascendancies of romanticism and rationality in the natural sciences.

Lizz and Sam think about how to turn Gunther Von Hagens into a functional toilet.Find Us:@vanishingdogs@lizzhamilton@samsketchbookMusic by Greta Russell, @noise_wife

We stare straight into the face of death this week with our episode talking about the hottest morticians. Will Henrietta Duterte prevail? Or will Frederik Ruysch's preservation reputation be preserved?   Show notes at historicallyhot.com/episodes/morticians   Spooky version of the Historical Hotties theme song made for us specifically by Jon Biegen from the podcast Stranger Still!

In this episode, your hosts turn their scalpels on the strange and ethically-murky world of human body exhibitions. We discuss Gunther von Hagens, the German anatomist who perfected techniques of plastination, a method of preservation that he later applied to whole human cadavers in his exhibition Bodyworlds.  We look at von Hagen’s predecessors, like 17th-century Dutch anatomist Frederik Ruysch, as well as his present-day imitators, who have turned these preserved-anatomy exhibits into an international cash business, with side jaunts into the occupational diseases of anatomists and the dangers lurking in your frying pan. Don't forget to subscribe to Remains to be Seen!  

Historicus Luuc Kooijmans schreef het boek 'Frederik Ruysch, op het snijvlak van kunst en wetenschap'. Drie eeuwen voordat Body Worlds haar deuren opende, bestond er al een wereldberoemde anatomische expositie. Het museum van Frederik Ruysch aan de Bloemgracht in Amsterdam. Ruysch ontdekte een preparatietechniek waarmee hij mensen op een prachtige manier wist te prepareren. Bezoekers van zijn museum konden nauwelijks geloven dat de geprepareerde lichamen niet gewoon lagen te slapen.

Kun je kunstenaar zijn en tegelijkertijd wetenschapper? Is wetenschap eigenlijk niet ook een soort kunst? Was het vroeger makkelijker om zowel kunstenaar als wetenschapper te zijn? Vanochtend stelden Misha en Elmer deze vragen aan socioloog en kunstenaar Hans Abbing (UvA) en kunsthistoricus Bert van de Roemer (UvA). Bert vertelde over de collecties van de 17e-eeuwse medicus Frederik Ruysch wiens preparaten ook een sterk kunstzinnig karakter hadden. We leren dat wetenschappers die heel keurig en met groot esthetisch besef hun rariteitenkabinetten organiseerden, dachten dat je door kunst de natuur kon verbeteren. Hans Abbing, zelf socioloog, econoom én kunstenaar, vertelde over de raakvlakken tussen kunst en wetenschap en of die twee werelden steeds meer naar elkaar groeien of niet. Is het wenselijk dat kunst 'intellectualiseert'? Machiel Keestra verzorgde een column over de rol van creativiteit in de verschillende wetenschapsdisciplines en betoogde dat de grens tussen kunst en wetenschap beslecht moest worden. Mirjam en Marie-Beth maakten een reportage over de tentoonstelling Imaginary Math in het VoxPop-museum van de UvA. Terugluisteren dus.

What's hiding in the undergrowth of Rachel Ruysch's bold and beautiful flower painting? This is a world where buds hiss like snakes, poppies twirl and tiny insects devour - a vibrant, fecund jungle, full of uncanny life. Cathy FitzGerald hears how this great Dutch artist was influenced by her unusual childhood as the daughter of Frederik Ruysch, maker of one of the world's great curiosity cabinets.
