Source: Nature’s Healing Role in Art and Writing – Janine Burke

Posted on November 8th, 2009 by Jarvis in Biography, Non-Fiction, Travel

Source: Nature’s Healing Role in Art and Writing is a brilliant and ground-breaking exploration of the crucial role of nature in shaping and inspiring our most enduring artists and writers including Monet, Virginia Woolf, Ernest Hemingway, Georgia O’Keeffe, Picasso and Emily Kame Kngwarreye.

Creativity is a place. Memory is an image. The artistic process itself is a journey, a specific one, the return to a lost and cherished childhood realm, the original source of inspiration and identity.

What unites these artists and writers is a journey of return, of rediscovery, that leads them to the creation of a personal paradise. Upon arriving at that place, whether it was Georgia O’Keeffe in New Mexico, Monet in Giverny or Picasso in Provence, iconic new work emerged, inspired by that terrain, from its light, its colours, its landscape. Each of these artists had recovered the place they’d been unconsciously seeking for years.

In this engaging and ground-breaking book, acclaimed biographer and art historian Janine Burke explores how art and landscape, love and companionship, home and garden are entwined. Nature is culture, and its most insistent inspiration.
