It seeks to answer the following questions: 1) Is there any relationship between the creative process and "madness"?2) Up to what point are artists and geniuses "mad"? 3) Can we know the artists' psychopathology through their artistic productions? 4) Is it possible to differentiate the psychotic's neurotic distress in pictures and other artistic creations? Finally, creative texts and creative works are analyzed in order to support these reflections.
