Can Art Save Us?

If you are troubled by the state of the world, then take heart. Can Art Save Us? will stir your imagination and sense of possibilities. Fred Mandell calls for non-artists and artists alike to take the art making process and the language of beauty out of the studio and into a troubled world desperately in need of art's transformational power. From the opening pages, Mandell draws us into the world of creating-its struggles and exhilarations. He brings us into his studio, into his frame of mind, into his past, as he grapples with creative choices and the experiences that influence them. We smell the paint, feel the canvas, and coax the images to life. And then, as the final images emerge, Mandell transports us on a surprising and inspired journey beyond the studio walls as he lands us in a place of hope and possibility.
