Milner, Marion
Milner’s great study, first published in 1950, discusses the nature of creativity and those forces which prevent its expression. In focusing on her own beginner’s efforts to draw and paint, she analyses not the mysterious and elusive ability of the genius but – as the title suggests – the all too common and distressing situation of ‘not being able’ to create.
“A psychoanalyst and painter whose writings show great insight into the processes and temperaments of artistic practice.” — reviewed by Rose Frain.
