The group can be utilized in art therapy in a special way. The author demonstrates this through the technique of resonance images and the application of numerous therapeutic strategies. Having previously discussed the psychoanalytic and systemic approaches in art therapy and symbolism in three earlier books, the author here engages in an original exploration of the creative contribution that the art therapist can make when working with patients and their images in a group setting: specifically, through the application of strategies. Strategies are artistic tricks, lists, disguised methods, and all unexpected and indirect therapeutic interventions. The element of surprise in such approaches not only invigorates and expands the life context of the individual painter but also broadens the perspective of the entire group. Many practical examples provide the necessary illustration.
