In Freud's Art - Psychoanalysis Retold Janet Sayers provides a
refreshing new introduction to psychoanalysis by retelling its
story through art. She does this by bringing together experts from
psychoanalysis, art history, and art education to show how art and
psychoanalysis illuminate each other.
Freud's Art begins with major founders of psychoanalysis -
Freud, Jung, Spielrein and Klein. It then details art-minded
developments of their ideas by Adrian Stokes, Jacques Lacan, Marion
Milner, Anton Ehrenzweig, Donald Winnicott, and Wilfred Bion before
concluding with the recent theories of Jean Laplanche and Julia
Kristeva. The result is a book which highlights the importance of
psychoanalysis, together with painting and the visual arts, to
understanding the centrality of visual imagery, fantasy, nightmares
and dreams to all of us, artists and non-artists alike.
Illustrated throughout with fascinating case histories, examples
of well known and amateur art, doodles, drawings, and paintings by
both analysts and their patients, Freud's Art provides a compelling
account of psychoanalysis for all those studying, working in, or
simply intrigued by psychology, mental health and creativity
today.
