Summary
Explores the mythology of genius, from the renaissance to Andy Warhol and the relationship between genius, fame, mental states, life as an outsider and the art produced. The concept of genius shifted the role of the artist from craftsman to a status of veneration, but fashion and taste determine the value ascribed to works of art.
