商品簡介
This work for art therapists and students explores the connections between outsider art and art therapy, looking at shared histories in mental health, shared histories in art, and studio programs at the cross-section of outsider art, art therapy, and art education. Most of the artwork presented comes from active, living artists working in studio programs. The author hopes to help art therapists become more engaged with outsider art as a tool to help empower client-artists and as a way to reconnect with the historic roots of the field. The book contains a wealth of b&w photos of art. Annotation ©2017 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
