Book Description
Imagine yourself painting with no hesitations, no conflicts. Your brush dips into pots of vibrantly colored paint; inner inspiration guides your hand into lines and shapes that find their perfect places on the paper . . . Welcome! I'm Aviva Gold, your guide to the magic source. As children, all of us lived and painted intuitively. And as adults we can re-create the boundless joy of unselfconscious art by setting aside intellectual critique and self-doubt and reconnecting with the source. Remember standing at an easel as a child and painting in a trancelike state of wonder? Somewhere along the line this freedom gets trained out of us, and we are either categorized as artists or not. Paint and remember! Return to the easel with the same childlike sense of play. My program is not about regimentation. Learn to let go of inhibitions, relinquish control, and embrace the source. Using simple materials--tempera paints, newsprint--paint without worrying about the end product. Just let go, and begin! Every human being is an artist. In Bali, one word means both "human" and "artist." Just show up and face a blank piece of paper. Tap into the source. Revitalize! Transform! Now, imagine yourself painting . . .

Book Description
"IMAGINE a world where each person practices intuitive art a few moments each day...drawing, poem, dance, song, or ritual... surely this universal act of healing prayer opens hearts, fostering right action for the entire web of life," says Aviva Gold. This updated version of Gold's classic guide to ritual visual expression, Painting From The Source: Awakening The Artists Soul In Everyone (Harper Collins, 1998), now includes the long-awaited sequel, which inspires the reader to not only seek out the artist within, but to bring that creativity into the world and to inspire others to do the same. The new final chapters, Source Art in The World, address improvised arts as a powerful spiritual ritual and eco-activism practice, with instructions on implementation. The Complete PFTS is an essential read for anyone interested in how authentic creativity can re-enchant and heal our ailing world. It is a call for art activism as a catalyst for cultural transformation. The digital companion version is supplemented with over 70 links to illustrative web sites, definitions and videos. www.PaintingFromTheSource.comENDORSEMENTS: "Aviva Gold believes conscious evolution can be sparked byoutpouring of creativity and her book and work are an important piece of the transformative fabric of the human imagination.

Book Description
This book is the first survey of the figural arts of the Iranian world from prehistoric times to the early twentieth century ever to consider themes, rather than styles. Analyzing primarily painting - in manuscripts and albums, on walls and on lacquered, painted pen boxes and caskets - but also the related arts of sculpture, ceramics, and metalwork, the author finds that the underlying themes depicted on them through the ages are remarkably consistent. Eleanor Sims demonstrates that all these arts display similar concerns: kingship and legitimacy; the righteous exercise of princely power and the defense of national territory; and the performance of rituals and the religious duties called for by the paramount cult of the day. She describes a variety of superb works of art inside and outside these categories, noting not only how they illustrate archetypal themes but also what it is about them that is unique. She also discusses the ways that Iranian art both influenced and was influenced by invaders and neighboring lands. Boris I. Marshak discusses pre-Islamic and also Central Asian art, in particular the earliest Iranian wall paintings and their pictorial parallels in rock carvings and metalwork, and the richly painted temples and houses of Panjikent. Ernst J. Grube considers religious imagery, and provides an informative bibliography.

Together, these narratives and the beautifully reproduced body of paintings tell the fascinating story of Native American painting in modern America.
Author: Barbara Drake Boehm Publisher: Metropolitan Museum of Art ISBN: 1588393054 Category : Choral music Languages : en Pages : 66
Book Description
This delightful book describes and illustrates the Metropolitan Museum's collection of nearly 40 illuminations from Italian choral manuscripts. Representing the work of Gothic and Renaissance masters both celebrated and anonymous, these precious paintings in miniature---with their compelling narrative, brilliant color, and shining gold---bear witness to exceptional aesthetic accomplishment. The choir books they illuminate are a rich source of information about the development of chant, whose unexpected transcendent tonalities have abiding appeal today. They also serve as primary sources for the study of the lives of religious communities and of the philosophy and faith that infused medieval Europe, offering a glimpse of Italy at the dawn of the Renaissance.
