The awakening artist : madness and spiritual awakening in art

Howe, Patrick, 1951-2013
Books, Manuscripts
'The Awakening Artist' is an art theory book that explores the collision of human madness and spiritual awakening in art. It examines a condition of insanity that can be seen in most art movements throughout art history and contrasts that insanity with revelations of beauty, wonder and truth that can also be found in many works of art. The book references concepts of creativity put forward by Joseph Campbell, Carl Sagan, Albert Einstein, Carl Jung and others.
