Including contributions from some of the leading art therapists in Britain; this important book addresses the key issues in the theory and practice of art therapy. The fundamental significance of the art in art therapy practice permeates the book; close attention being paid by several writers to the art-making process and the aesthetic responses of therapist and client. Other authors explore the tensions between art and therapy; images and speech; subjectivity and objectivity; arguing that the dynamic interplay between these elements is inherent to the practice of art therapy. The role of containment is another theme that is explored by contributors in a variety of ways to highlight the importance not only of the therapeutic containment of the client by the therapist; but also the containment of the therapist. The physical contexts of the session; within an art room and within the larger working environment; are identified as important arenas where conflict and tension is experienced and must be explored if art therapy is to continue to develop.
