In this provocative book, Flack shows how the transcendence occurs, in the art of looking as well as in the moment of creation. With its wonderfully acute critiques of artists from Tintoretto to Jackson Pollock and its insistence on reforging the links between the artist and larger world, \u003ci\u003eArt and Soul\u003c\/i\u003e is a brave, nourishing book that will inspire not only visual artists but anyone who has chosen the creative path.","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43380167442687,"sku":"9780140193473","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780140193473_s600x595.jpg?v=1777307536","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780140193473","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
