Résumé 0

Paintings say more than what they seemingly show. Jung’s pictorial vocabulary as a painter is not gratuitous, and deserves closer study. After experimenting with several styles, both naïve and academic, Jung developed his “multicolored arabesques” quite extensively. He enjoyed producing numerous virtuoso variations on the theme. Possibly, these paintings are a representation in figurative language of the unconscious and the archetypes, subjects that are impossible to describe or portray, in either words or images.
