Anyone
who attempts self-expression
through art has touched the "secret power of vision" from which all
great art flowers. The artist Alex Grey, who has evoked awe, rapture,
and controversy over the past 20 years, is our preeminent explorer
of
this deep realm where creativity and divinity merge. On The Visionary
Artist, Grey's first work on audio, he personally guides us to these
mystical places through a full curriculum of intensive, mind-expanding
visualizations.
A longtime student of meditation, shamanism, and transpersonal psychology, |

Grey
leads listeners up and down the ladder of consciousness
to retrieve the transcendental visions our souls are constantly painting.
From exercises on form, color,
and imagery - to the energetic structures of reality - to the universal
source of all creation, Grey's system for artistic exploration guides
us along the sacred path of art, while dissolving the boundaries of
reality along the way. Artists in virtually any discipline will appreciate
Grey's view of art as a revelatory and healing force. The Visionary
Artist plunges us into a mystery that is at least 40,000 years old:
the true mission of art in human experience. |
