About this title

Synopsis

Drawing on psychoanalytic discourse, the author of this work probes the use of words and images in contemporary culture. She draws upon a number of artistic movements and exhibitions to examine the emotional and intellectual responses to art.

'A wise, scholarly, and interdisciplinary work that explores multiple meanings in art, life, music, literature, film, myth-even graffiti--and, most of all, psychoanalysis.' --'Choice'
