The brain of my art

Art is in the mind. - But what happens there during a creative process? Speckmann attempts to combine his scientific findings as a neurophysiologist with the results of his "self-awareness" as a painter and sculptor. The prerequisite for this is the brain's ability to be aware of itself, i.e. to be able to think about itself. The reader can expect an enlightening journey of discovery into the current questions and findings of brain research and a new, unusual view of the artistic creative process. --Prof. Dr Erwin-Josef Speckmann is Emeritus Professor of Neurophysiology at the University of Münster, where he continues his experimental scientific work. He is one of the world's leading brain researchers. His more than 25 book publications include the standard work "Physiology" (with P. Deetjen and J. Hescheler). Numerous national and international scientific awards. Ongoing solo exhibitions of his paintings and sculptures. Lecturer at the Kunstakademie Münster since 2003.
