A Compelling Overview of Art Therapy Techniques and Outcomes

Abstract

Art Therapy Has Many Faces is an enlightening film that richly illustrates the significance and impact of art as a therapeutic tool in human lives. As the film states, there is a “magic power of the image” that serves to reaffirm the age-old saying that “a picture is worth a thousand words.” Indeed, one becomes convinced that no amount of talk could have unearthed some of the feelings and events portrayed in the art produced in art therapy programs depicted in this film.
