FEATURING RICK GUIDOTTI WITH POSITIVE EXPOSURE: THE SPIRIT OF DIFFERENCE AND THE SOCIETY OF BEHAVIOURAL PHENOTYPES PHOTOGRAPHIC EXHIBITION
Postive Exposure, founded in 1997 by former fashion photographer Rick Guidotti and Diane McLean, MD, PhD, MPH, is a highly innovative arts organisation working with individuals living with genetic difference.
Through vigorous cross-sector partnerships with health advocacy organizations, governmental agencies and educational institutions, Positive Exposure utilises the visual arts to significantly impact the fields of genetics, mental health and human rights.
Our programs support and promote human dignity through Positive Exposure’s Spirit of Difference photographic image data bank and video interviews of persons, particularly children, living with genetic conditions.
A recurring theme voiced by many individuals/families and organisations is the need to help physicians, particularly medical students and trainees, learn how to best meet the concerns of individuals/families with, or at risk for, genetic disorders. 
Each individual living with a genetic difference desires to be viewed first and foremost as a human being with his/her own special needs rather than as a specific diagnosis/disease entity; currently available medical images illustrating genetic difference are particularly dehumanising and dispiriting.
