- Abstract
The passion for arts, the passion to create is our most human quality. It had been long discovered that there is a connection between creativity and mental illnesses, more precisely between arts and bipolar affective disorder. In my paper, I would like to present some possible explanations structurally and conscientiously, and I would like to illustrate this connection through the example of the great Dutch painter's life, Vincent van Gogh. Around him, there are many uncertainties. However, examining the way he lived and the way he died, the diagnosis of the bipolar affective disorder is very much possible.
