Rezensionen
How lovely and inspiring to read this remarkable work of art / artistry, creativity, community and consciousness of connecting and interconnectivity. This work offers an aesthetic / creative, emancipatory caring pathway for human healing during and after a pandemic crisis. This book invites and evokes fresh new insights, where wisdom is discovered and co-created from within and among circles of caring.

This engaging book both describes and performs a group's artistic journey during the challenging times of COVID. Experiential, communal, playful, and moving, the book points at possibilities and opportunities for aesthetic explorations and artistry within a special space. Co-inquiry through Spontaneous Creation-Making offers everyone a compelling journey of art-making, aesthetic explorations, along with ideas for facilitation and communal care serving the future.

Liora Bresler, Ph.D. Professor Emerita, University of Illinois, College of Education & School of Art and Design, Urbana-Champaign

Bickel and Fisher present us with a guidebook for connection and healing through the practice of spontaneous art-making, a practice they themselves have been involved with for many years. This is a hopeful book based on their experiences-art not as escape but as engagement both with ourselves and those around us. Caring, compassion, community: these are the roads the world always needs more of, and this book offers a unique way of starting the journey.

Eva Tihanyi, author of The Largeness of Rescue, Flying Underwater: Poems New and Selected, and Truth and Other Fictions.

I am very impressed by Barbara Bickel and Michael Fisher's articulation of the art process, community, and especially their collaborative spirit! They are both so very inspiring! Their book feeds the soul with artistic methods and prompts that reawaken the senses through play and observation.

Dr. Katrina Plato, registered art therapist and educator

This book weaves together theories, practices, images, text-based forms, and 30 years of work to offer insights into creative communal practices that co-authors Bickel and Fisher call Spontaneous Creation-Making (SCM). Through this compelling and timely guidebook we are invited to enter sacred, mysterious and playful borderspaces that lead us to deeper understandings and more nuanced explorations of art-care methods but also, for example, of community, creativity, healing/wholism, (un)learning, and inquiry. This is an important resource for anyone who is interested in engaging with and/or facilitating spontaneous creation-making processes, even in virtual contexts. This book is a gift!
