Book description
'Donfrancesco examines artistic experience with the eye of an analyst,
and analytic experience with the eye of an artist. His writing is
involved, understood and practised as an operation, a process which,
particularly through the use of image, seeks to merge the individual and
the general, subjective and objective, the psychological and the
spiritual. Beauty, for him, is the aim of all art; a beauty that
mobilises Eros through the active myth-defining elements in a work of
art, including the most contemporary creation, and thus supports the
exchange of aesthetic emotion.' - Christian Gaillard, PhD, Jungian
psychoanalyst, former president of the International Association for
Analytical Psychology
