Description
Rudolf Steiner's intuitiveartistic knowledge enabled him to use colors in a unique way that givesexpression to their individual nature. Along with his many lectures on art, Steiner's paintings provide artists with fresh ways of understanding color, allowing entirely new forms of creativity and aesthetics.
In 1924, Steiner painted a watercolorof the Madonna and Child, giving it the title "New Life." Through Steiner'sdepiction of Mary, mother of the Divine Child, this painting draws us to thefeminine expression of spirituality. In this highly illustrated, full-colorbook, Angela Lord studies this feminine principle, beginning with the veryearliest stages of human evolution--the "Fall" from paradise and the prehistoricperiods of Lemuria and Atlantis. From the Mysteries of Egypt and Greece to thedevelopment of Christian art, she offers insights to the myths and legends offemale deities and goddesses.
According to Rudolf Steiner, at the time of Jesus'birth, humanity had entered a decadent phase of development. Small groups ofinitiated individuals, however, were preparing for a sacred birth--the descentof a heavenly being into earthly existence. The God of the Old Testament wouldbe revealed "in flesh," born to a virgin mother. In the second part of thisbook, the author takes us on a journey through two thousand years of Christianart, covering Iconography, the Middle Ages, and the Renaissance. We see howartistic images of Mary and her child have changed, why these variations occurred, and how they reflect the changing consciousness of humanity. Finally, the "NewLife" painting is considered from the interactive processes of color and composition, illustrated with a series of artistic color sequences.Spécifications
