Beschreibung
The publication ARTS – THERAPIES – COMMUNICATION is
designed as two volumes, the first of which is on hand here. It deals with
art therapy studies from Great Britain and the non-European countries and
the authors are academics and practitioners. A second volume will offer
topic-related contributions from other European regions and countries.
Under the auspices of the European Consortium for Art Therapies Education
(ECArTE) a European art therapy which is concerned with the development of
a European-oriented discipline with training and fostering of successors
at universities is articulating itself. This is aimed at art therapists,
music therapists, drama and dance therapists but also at psychotherapists
and clinical psychologists, teachers, sociologists and doctors. With
regard to method and theory different directions and psychoanalytical
approaches are represented and it also addresses a wide spectrum of
clinical and non-clinical contexts and illnesses. In this way diverse
interests in art therapy can be satisfied.
Line Kossolapow is Professor at the
Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Faculty of
Educational and Social Sciences.
