More Details
- Summary:
- Exploring the link between mental illness and artistic greatness, artists, art experts, and psychiatrists examine artist Vincent Van Gogh as a case study in bipolar disorder. By dissecting his pathology, using many of his works as indicators, experts delve into the mind of the artist. Scrutinizing the questions of what drove to suicide, they consider if it was a combination of epilepsy, depression, and acute intermittent porphyria that contributed to the 'madness' that helped make him great - and his life a misery.
