Artistry of the Mentally Ill

One of the original attempts to analyze the artistic work of the mentally ill, Prinzhorn's collection of drawings, paintings, and sculptures helps to define an area encompassing psychiatry and art, illness and self-expression. Where other collections are only the products of psychotherapeutic case studies, this heavily illustrated, classic analysis stands in valuable contrast by presenting purely spontaneous and original works.Prinzhorn, Hans is the author of 'Artistry of the Mentally Ill' with ISBN 9783211826393 and ISBN 3211826394.
