    Odd Nerdrum - Twin Mothers

    The Man with the Golden Coin

    By Oleg Korolev

    The artist cannot realize that the problem is in the art system, which still acts as a hidden tool of the Cultural war, passing off a genuine Soviet-style of the “Planning economics” as the “Free market” of Capitalism.

    New works by Oleg Korolev – Alchemy of Rurik

    By Oleg Korolev

    In general the Slavonic native religions have a lot in common with the rest of the Indo-European spiritual traditions and have a direct connection to Vedanta. A Russian word Veda (t’) means “to know” or just a “knowledge”, “awareness”, came from Sanskrit.

    Lila has charted the contemporary visionary and sacred art movement by talking directly to those involved. Explore the themes, motifs, inspirations and approaches to creativity found in visionary art.

    Visionary Arts: What Vision? by Gaia Orion

    The artist’s life may seem to be unfolding like an archetypal legend where dreams and events are interwoven in a perfect dance. The core of these visions is an ordered and centered life with intentions of understanding and integrity. The visionary art that comes from this base is what we also call “contemporary sacred art”.

Ancient Civlizations / Alien Technologies at Temple of Visions

DOWNTOWN LA’S TEMPLE OF VISIONS GALLERY

CONTEMPLATES NEW CONCEPTS ON THE ORIGINS OF MANKIND

WITH THEIR SECOND CURATORIAL CREATION:

ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS / ALIEN TECHNOLOGIES

March 27, Los Angeles: Temple of Visions, LA’s first gallery dedicated to the new global visionary art movement, presents its provocative new show: ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS/ALIEN TECHNOLOGIES, an exhibition contemplating the origins of mankind and our place in the universe.

Recent scientific discoveries, academic acceptance of once preposterous concepts, new insights into ancient texts and artifacts, multiple government disclosures, and overwhelming credible accounts open the doors of perception to new ideas on man’s evolutionary pilgrimage toward the coming new age. Temple of Visions has assembled a group of world class artists and exhibitors to explore these ideas in an open, creative forum.

Curator Jimmy Bleyer sees validity and resonance in these new concepts, which cast doubt on the traditional hold on our notions of history by academics, political entities and organized religion. Bleyer says candidly,” I’ve been consistently blown away by new, tightly researched models of civilization’s beginnings on Earth, by recently discovered and deciphered artifacts and by my personal experiences with phenomena outside our accepted perception. It’s high time we talk about these things openly.”

To that end, lectures and workshops addressing the subject are being scheduled throughout the 2.5 month run. The space will also host art, music, visionary culture and community building events.
Temple of Visions presents:
ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS/ALIEN TECHNOLOGIES

OPENING March 27, 2010 from 8:00p – 2:00a
