Psychoanalytic Explorations In Art by Ernst Kris
A collection of psychoanalytic essays that probes how unconscious impulses, defenses, and developmental dynamics shape both the making and reception of visual art; drawing on clinical observation, art-historical examples, and theoretical reflection, it examines themes such as regression, sublimation, symbolism, the role of craftsmanship, and the aesthetic experience, arguing that creative work involves a negotiated interplay between instinctual urges and ego control rather than simple pathology or mere technique.
