'Demented Art is an interdisciplinary monograph on art created by mental patients. Chinese contemporary artist Guo Haiping entered a mental hospital and wrote this book in collaboration with psychiatrist Ms. Wang Yu. This book fills a gap in the field of domestic mental patients' art. It introduces often unknown special mental state of domestic mental patients with vivid and detailed language and pictures. Of special interest, is a series of unique viewpoints in this book, which will surely exert a profound influence on conventional thoughts and beliefs.' - Excerpted from the book back
