Creativity by Philippe Petit

Since well before his epic 1974 walk between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, Philippe Petit had become an artist who answered first and foremost to the demands of his craft - not only on the high wire, but also as a magician, street juggler, visual artist, builder and writer. A born rebel, he is self taught, cultivating the attitudes, resources and techniques to tackle even seemingly impossible feats. His outlaw sensibility spawned a unique approach to the creative process, an approach he shares with the reader, revealing unconventional ways of creating art.

Philippe Petit is a magician, street juggler, visual artist, builder, educator, and writer who has performed on the high wire over eighty times around the world. He is the author and artist of several books, including To Reach the Clouds, the foundation for the 2009 Academy Award-winning documentary Man on Wire. He is a frequent contributor to TED and other national forums. Petit is a resident of upstate New York.
