Focusing on a group of aspiring artists from the mid-1960s to the mid-1980s, this book delves into the complexities of artistic creativity, addressing the mystique of the artist, community building, and the impact of the art market on identity. It challenges the notion that recent decades have fostered greater artistic freedom, arguing instead that the contemporary climate may hinder creativity. Mark Freeman aims to identify key issues in artistic expression and propose ways to cultivate more favorable conditions for creativity, appealing to a diverse audience including artists, psychologists, and educators.
