The PAIN Exhibit "is an educational, visual arts exhibit from artists with chronic pain with their art expressing some facet of the pain experience. The mission of the PAIN Exhibit is to educate health care providers and the public about chronic pain through art," and to give a voice to those who have chronic pain.[1]

The undertreatment of chronic pain is a public health issue[2] with an estimated 75 million Americans suffering from chronic nonmalignant pain.[3]

The PAIN Exhibit was started in 2001 by Mark Collen, and the PainExhibit.com website was created by James Gregory. The site was launched March 8, 2004 and is available in both English and Spanish languages. PainExhibit.com currently contains 92 art images which are divided amongst nine themes.[1]

Since its inception in 2001, Mark Collen has worked to further the mission of the PAIN Exhibit by writing articles for pain publications,[4][5][6][7][8][9][10] as well as producing the patient brochure, “So You’ve Got Chronic Pain…What’s Next?” which was edited by Steven Feinberg, MD.[2]
