Sacred Geometry

The strands of our DNA, the cornea of our eye, snow flakes, pine cones, flower petals, diamond crystals, the branching of trees, a nautilus shell, the star we spin around, the galaxy we spiral within, the air we breathe, and all life forms as we know them emerge out of timeless geometric codes.

The designs of exalted holy places from the prehistoric monuments at Stonehenge and the Pyramid of Khufu at Giza, to the world's great cathedrals, mosques, and temples are based on these same principles of sacred geometry.

As far back as Greek Mystery schools 2500 years ago it was taught that there are five perfect 3-dimensional forms - the tetrahedron, hexahedron, octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron...collectively known as the Platonic Solids; and that these form the foundation of everything in the physical world.

Modern scholars ridiculed this idea until the 1980's, when Professor Robert Moon at the University of Chicago demonstrated that the entire Periodic Table of Elements - literally everything in the physical world - truly is based on these same five geometric forms. In fact, throughout modern physics, chemistry, and biology, the sacred geometric patterns of creation are today being rediscovered.

The ancients knew that these patterns were codes symbolic of our own inner realm and that the experience of sacred geometry was essential to the education of the soul. Viewing and contemplating these forms can allow us to gaze directly at the face of deep wisdom and glimpse the inner workings of The Universal Mind.

LightSOURCE Arts is dedicated to bringing the power of sacred geometry and the wonderfully patterned beauty of Creation to your life.

Geometric Abstraction


THOMAS YEZZA  of Vernon, New Jersey paints these     
 intricate geometric abstractions that are optically compelling.
 Quite strong is his piece “Aztec Autumn Sun” and “Bang”
with the radial burst almost giving off energy itself.


As the gallery goes forth, we hope that artists will benefit
 from the worldwide exposure which each truly deserves.
Sincerely,

Geometric Abstraction ?????

Geometric abstraction

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search
Kazimir Malevich, Black Square, 1915, Oil on Canvas, State Russian Museum, St.Petersburg

Geometric abstraction is a form of abstract art based on the use of simple geometric forms placed in non-illusionistic space and combined into non-objective compositions. Throughout 20th century art historical discourse, critics and artists working within the reductive or pure strains of abstraction have often suggested that geometric abstraction represents the height of a non-objective art practice, which necessarily stresses or calls attention to the root plasticity and two-dimensionality of painting as an artistic medium. Thus, it has been suggested that geometric abstraction might function as a solution to problems concerning the need for modernist painting to reject the illusionistic practices of the past while addressing the inherently two dimensional nature of the picture plane as well as the canvas functioning as its support. Wassily Kandinsky, one of the forerunners of pure non-objective painting, was among the first modern artists to explore this geometric approach in his abstract work. Other examples of pioneer abstractionists such as Kasimir Malevich and Piet Mondrian have also embraced this approach towards abstract painting.

However, geometric abstraction cannot only be seen as an invention of 20th century avant-garde artists or movements. It is present among many cultures throughout history both as decorative motifs and as art pieces themselves. Islamic art, in its prohibition of depicting human or animal figures (to prevent believers from idolatry), is a prime example of this geometric pattern-based art. Abstract art has also historically been likened to music in its ability to convey emotional or expressive feelings and ideas without reliance upon or reference to recognizable objective forms already existent in reality. Wassily Kandinsky has discussed this connection between music and painting, as well as how the practice of classical composition had influenced his work, at length in his seminal essay Concerning the Spiritual in Art.

Expressionist abstract painting, as practiced by artists such as Jackson Pollock, Franz Kline, Clyfford Still, and Wols, represents the opposite of geometric abstraction.

Artists who have worked extensively in geometric abstraction include Josef Albers, Richard Anuszkiewicz, Ellsworth Kelly, Wassily Kandinsky, Kazimir Malevich, Alexander Rodchenko, Frantisek Kupka, Theo van Doesburg, Sophie Taeuber-Arp, Piet Mondrian, Victor Vasarely, Max Bill, Nadir Afonso, Vieira da Silva, George Johnson, Peter Graham, Gordon Walters, Frank Stella, Kenneth Noland, John Levee, Thomas Downing, Ronald Davis, Burgoyne Diller, Leon Goldin, Jack Reilly, Sean Scully, Günter Fruhtrunk, Ilya Bolotowsky, and Larry Zox, among others.
