André Malraux, The Psychology of Art: Museum Without Walls & The Creative Act, 1949
The Psychology of Art is a work of art history by André Malraux. The book offers an explication of Malraux's philosophy of art via the history of Western painting.

In 1951 a revised, single-volume edition was published as The Voices of Silence. Stuart Gilbert translated all four books into English.
