This volume explores the strengths and opportunities of old age as these are manifested by the accomplishments of aging artists, late artistic works, and elderly arts audiences.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hope for the artistically challenged, January 3, 2012

Jerry K - See all my reviews

This review is from: Aging, Creativity and Art: A Positive Perspective on Late-Life Development (The Springer Series in Adult Development and Aging) (Hardcover)

While not a gerontologist, I do believe we retain and perhaps embellish our creativity in later years by way of life experiences, with only the physical impediments which vary in individuals. But as life is now seemingly extended
there is hope for more artistic creativity in later years.
