Art On The Spectrum: A Guide For Mentoring And Marketing Artists With ASD (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798561932823)

"Michael McManmon and Tony Gengarelly have leveraged their collective personal and professional expertise to offer Art on the Spectrum . . . aimed at highlighting the genius and talent of neurodiverse artists, helping to provide a platform for them to exhibit and sell their work, and shifting community perceptions of autism toward strength and positivity.Acknowledging neurodiversity as a central lens in the lives, education, and career trajectories of autistic youth and adults, as this book does, requires recognition that the differences which define autistic people do not need to be 'cured' or normalized; rather, viewed as defining qualities which should be celebrated, honored, and embraced . . . Art on the Spectrum offers a guide for aspiring artists to maximize such strengths through profiles of other successful artists, community and educational resources, and practical strategies to help artists jump start their careers."
