A work of art, whether a painting, a dance, a poem, or a jazz
composition, can be admired in its own right. But how does the
artist actually create his or her work? What is the source of an
artist's inspiration? What is the force that impels the artist to
set down a vision that becomes art?
In this groundbreaking book, Edward Hirsch explores the concept
of"duende," that mysterious, highly potent power of creativity that
results in a work of art. With examples ranging from Federico
Garcia Lorca's wrestling with darkness as he discovered the
fountain of words within himself to Martha Graham's creation of her
most emotional dances, from the canvases of Robert Motherwell to
William Blake's celestial visions, Hirsch taps into the artistic
imagination and explains, in terms illuminating and emotional, how
different artists respond to the power and demonic energy of
creative impulse.
