Art Against Despair

Press back against the grey days and long nights with The School of Life’s supportive Art Against Despair.

Compiling some of the world’s most consoling and uplifting images, Art Against Despair charts a course through a range of styles in search of comfort, from ancient to modern art, photography to painting, to abstract and figurative art. Each of the selected artworks comes with an accompanying essay that elaborates on the way the piece might offer support, and maybe a bit of perspective in a time where that can be tough to find.
