This review presents an epigenetic view on complex factors leading to development and perception of "genius." There is increasing evidence which indicates that artistic creativity is influenced by epigenetic processes that act both as targets and mediators of neurotransmitters as well as steroid hormones. Thus, perception and production of art appear to be closely associated with epigenetic contributions to physical and mental health. © Springer-Verlag 2011.
