Product Description

GREY (ALEX) TRANSFIGURATIONS   

Transfigurations, the follow-up to Greys Sacred Mirrors (1991)--one of the most successful art books of the 1990s--includes all of Greys major works completed in the following decade, including the masterful seven-paneled altarpiece Nature of Mind, called the grand climax of Greys art by Donald Kuspit. His portrayals of human beings blend anatomical exactitude with visionary depictions of universal life energy. Alex Greys striking artwork leads us on the souls journey from material world encasement to recovery of the divinely illuminated core.Transfigurations and Sacred Mirrors, Greys main books, need little introduction to the alternative sales industry. In any discussion on the nature of creativity, Gray is recognized as a contemporary exemplar of a creative genius who continually surprises with his variety of chosen mediums  but mostly by the starling nature of both his technique and content. Praised by just about every big wheel in the Human Potential Movement [ Grof, Wilbur, Chopra, Hoffmann et al ], Grays work has inspired many into seeing beyond the physical limitations of the natural eye and sensing with the creative imagination the infinite dimension of the reality that lies all around us. The glory of Gray is that he has seen this world and is able to represent it visually. Depicting the human form as translucid, interpenetrated and supported by the infrastructure of the inner energetic world residing in an ocean of infinite pranic energy. Nothing less than a visual initiation into etheric energetics, each painting becomes a visual meditation. Creativity is rarely seen so blatantly. (Mick Neal)   INNER TRADITIONS INTERNATIONAL.
