Image and process: Psychoanalysis or art?

Abstract

This paper argues that Marion Milner's contributions to psychoanalytic understandings of art are of interest as comments both on ways of approaching the production of images and their generation of meaning, and on the practice of psychoanalysis in the consulting room. This is supported by discussion of her case history, The Hands of the Living God (1969). © 2014 BPF and John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
