Teaching Creativity
A study that takes as its starting point Nietzsche's view that works of art do not appear 'as if by magic'. Using insights from philosophy and semiotics, it examines the creative processes of many artists, showing how art works often result from processes of construction, deconstruction, and reconstruction that may be long and laborious.
