Art+psyche

In this provocative, closely argued book, Ellen handler Spitz explores three principal psychoanalytic approaches to art. The first considers the relations between an artist's life and work; the second focuses on the work of art itself; and the third encompasses the intricate relations between a work of art and its audience or beholders. To illustrate her theoretical discussion, Spitz draws on a variety of art forms, including painting, sculpture, literature, music, and dance.Spitz, Ellen H. is the author of 'Art+psyche' with ISBN 9780300033724 and ISBN 0300033729.
