Reviews
"A highly optimistic vision... Roams widely through subjects as immense as love, nature, money and politics. De Botton and Armstrong's examination of love is most rewarding."-- Royal Academy of Arts "Asking the questions that always swirl through your mind when striding around Tate Modern [...] Art as Therapy [...] massages the mind in all the right places."-- Vanity Fair on Art "...Like going back to college, but in a good way... A little bit like dipping in to a modern day Gombrich albeit through the eyes of Oprah... A really entertaining and thought-provoking look at the role that art plays - or could play - in our lives. [...] Part philosophy, part art history, the book takes work that is considered by many to be lofty and rarified, and relates it to our everyday lives. [ Art as Therapy ] makes the reader consider the work far more intensely and deeply than perhaps we otherwise would."-- A Little Bird "A true meditation on the power art has to transform our lives."-- The Mayfair Magazine? "The beautifully designed and illustrated book, Art as Therapy argues for a new way of using art to help us with a variety of psychological ills."-- The School of Life "A cultural cure for what ails you."-- Elle, "A highly optimistic vision...
