  • Overview

    Un fascinante recorrido a través de la nueva ciencia de la neuroestética, que demuestra cómo el contacto con el arte transforma nuestro cerebro, mejora nuestra salud mental y física y nos permite construir comunidades más fuertes y unidas.

    Hay una extendida creencia de que las artes son solo entretenimiento, un lujo. En Tu cerebro quiere arte, las autoras Susan Magsamen e Ivy Ross nos presentan investigaciones que demuestran cómo, sin importar tu nivel de habilidad, dedicando solo cuarenta y cinco minutos a un proyecto artístico podemos reducir el cortisol, la hormona del estrés, y que una experiencia artística al mes puede extender tu vida diez años. Hay médicos que incluso prescriben visitas a museos para abordar la soledad, la demencia y muchos otros problemas de salud física y mental.

    Aprenderemos asimismo que tocar un instrumento desarrolla habilidades cognitivas y mejora el aprendizaje; las vibraciones de un diapasón crean ondas sonoras que contrarrestan el estrés; la realidad virtual puede proporcionar beneficios terapéuticos de vanguardia; y las exhibiciones interactivas disuelven los límites entre el arte y los espectadores al involucrar todos nuestros sentidos y fortalecen nuestra memoria.

    Tu cerebro quiere arte es una guía sobre neuroestética que, a través de conversaciones con artistas como David Byrne, Renée Fleming y el biólogo evolutivo E. O. Wilson, nos descubre casos concretos de personas de todo el mundo que utilizan las artes para mejorar sus vidas. Una nueva comprensión de cómo las artes y la estética pueden ayudarnos a transformar la medicina tradicional, a construir comunidades más saludables y a reparar un planeta en crisis.

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    A fascinating journey through the new science of neuroaesthetics, showing how contact with art transforms our brain, improves our mental and physical health, and helps us build stronger, more united communities.

    There is a widespread belief that the arts are merely entertainment, a luxury. In Your Brain on Art, authors Susan Magsamen and Ivy Ross present research demonstrating that, regardless of skill level, spending just forty-five minutes on an artistic project can reduce cortisol, the stress hormone, and that one artistic experience per month can extend your life by ten years. Doctors even prescribe museum visits to address loneliness, dementia, and many other physical and mental health issues.

    We also learn that playing an instrument develops cognitive skills and enhances learning; the vibrations of a tuning fork create sound waves that counteract stress; virtual reality can provide cutting-edge therapeutic benefits; and interactive exhibitions dissolve the boundaries between art and spectators by engaging all our senses and strengthening memory.

    Your Brain on Art is a guide to neuroaesthetics that, through conversations with artists such as David Byrne, Renée Fleming, and evolutionary biologist E. O. Wilson, reveals concrete cases of people around the world using the arts to improve their lives. It offers a new understanding of how the arts and aesthetics can help transform traditional medicine, build healthier communities, and repair a planet in crisis.
