Art Therapy: Fictional Self-Help Book Titles Painted by Johan Deckmann Copenhagen-based artist Johan Deckmann examines the complications of life through clever titles painted on the covers of fictional self-help books that appear to tackle life’s biggest questions, fears, and absurdities. A practicing psychotherapist himself, Deckmann thoroughly recognizes the power of language in therapy and possesses a keen ability to translate his discoveries into witty phrases. “I like the idea of distilling words to compress information, feelings or fantasies into an essence, a truth,” he shares. “The right words can be like good medicine.” Deckmann often takes his pieces beyond simple language and into the realm of visual puns, such as an LP cover titled “The very best of the voices inside my head” or the juxtaposition of smaller and larger suitcases labeled “Baggage” and “Emotional Baggage.” Deckmann’s books have been exhibited around the world since he began the series in 2015, including a solo show last March at Andenken Gallery in Amsterdam.

Beautiful web type — the best typefaces from the Google web fonts directory Lucius Annaeus Seneca60 AD Among the numerous faults of those who pass their lives recklessly and without due reflexion, my good friend Liberalis, I should say that there is hardly any one so hurtful to society as this, that we neither know how to bestow or how to receive a benefit. It follows from this that benefits are badly invested, and become bad debts: in these cases it is too late to complain of their not being returned, for they were thrown away when we bestowed them. A Tiny, One-Room Art Museum Hits the Road—With Your Help | Unframed Guatemala’s first and only contemporary art museum also happens to be the world’s smallest. Founded in 2012 in a repurposed 2.5 x 2-meter kiosk formerly occupied by an egg seller, the egg-shaped Nuevo Museo de Arte Contemporáneo (NuMu) has become one of the most unconventional cultural destinations in Guatemala City. Jessica Kairé and Stefan Benchoam, the artists who run NuMu, have turned the micro-museum into an international creative hub that organizes public programs and provides resources to emerging artists, while exhibiting work by established artists from all over Latin America. Now NuMu has plans for a summer road trip—literally. Rendering of NuMu replica at LACMA But let’s rewind a bit.

How to Live a More Creative Life Nussbaum makes it clear: Creativity is contagious. “Hanging out with somebody creative and doing things together is probably the easiest way to learn to be creative,” he says. “Just working with them, seeing how they operate, how they see the world, learning from that—that’s the easiest way to enhance your creative intelligence.” Socialization is generative for creativity. Even going out on the town can be a fruitful creative platform. The caveat here, as Nussbaum is quick to say, is that many creatives are introverts, and place great value on the time they’re able to spend alone. Case in point, he adds, is that many (if not most) designers and creative people have a partner—someone who takes charge of the business side of the operation and things like branding and marketing, but also gives valuable feedback.
