[Vedettes matières IGN] CartologieRésumé : (auteur) This chapter discusses the enhancing effects of brain damage on artistic production. These observations are subject to significant selection biases. The effects of brain damage on the capacity to produce visual art stand in sharp contrast to many other human capacities. Diseases of the brain can impair the ability to speak or comprehend language, coordinate movements, recognize objects, apprehend emotions, and make logical decisions. The chapter reviews the ways in which neurological disorders can create a disposition to produce visual art, provide artists with a unique visual vocabulary, add to artists' descriptive accuracy, and enhance their expressive powers. These alterations are predicated on the brain damage not producing the kind of motor weakness that would make graphic expression impossible. Further, this chapter highlights the ways in which brain-damaged artists manifest deficits, such as achromatopsia, unilateral spatial neglect, visual agnosias, and asymbolias, similar to nonartists, albeit more eloquently.
