Response Art: The Art of the Art Therapist
Fish, Barbara J.
Art Therapy: Journal of the American Art Therapy Association, v29 n3 p138-143 2012
Response art is artwork created by art therapists in response to material that arises in their therapy work. Art therapists use response art to contain difficult material, express and examine their experiences, and share their experiences with others. In this viewpoint, some of the varied uses of response art are discussed and illuminated with vignettes as part of an ongoing dialogue on how dedication to art making can effectively support one's practice in a profession that recognizes the versatility and power of images. (Contains 5 figures.)
