    Re-Awakening the Renaissance
    Monday, November 10, 2014
    7–8 p.m.

    The European classical tradition in art has been lost in our century, but does it need to stay buried? Artist Kurt Wenner has spent a lifetime pursing artistic ideas that have been thought lost or are no longer considered a valid means of expression for the contemporary artist. In doing so, he has created an immensely popular art movement, 3D Pavement Art, and has traveled the world creating images in a wide variety of media for an incredibly diverse set of clients. In this presentation, Kurt Wenner will recount his journey and explain the historical and conceptual basis of his artistic motivation. 

    A slideshow and lecture recounts the experience of traveling to Europe and transforming the folk art of the Italian madonnari into a lively, contemporary, international sensation.

    The Nature of Creativity
    Tuesday, November 11, 2014
    7–8 p.m.

    Sedona Gift Shop

    In this presentation Kurt Wenner proposes a profound and all-encompassing insight about the source of creativity and its great power to transform the world and our relationship to it. He will explain how a clear and incisive understanding of the creative process is essential in order to understand our historical misconceptions so that we can construct a new paradigm. Because creativity is what enables ideas to become manifest in the physical world, it is an essential component both of nature and of human experience. Only through understanding the essential structure of creativity can we make meaningful and effective changes in contemporary thought.

    Classical Drawing
    Wednesday, November 12, 2014
    7–8 p.m.

    As part of this presentation Kurt will introduce a series of four workshops to be held in April 2015 at the Sedona Arts Center. The formal structure of classicism is rooted in the ancient principles of sacred geometry and the physical nature of human perception. No other artistic language has surpassed classicism in the ability to communicate form and space to a viewer, or to recount a narrative. Kurt Wenner will demonstrate how a classical drawing is both ?abstract? in its formal structure and ?pure? in design. He will show that the classical tradition is not a style, but a language of form based on a profound knowledge and appreciation of the physical universe and man’s participation in it.

    What Would I Change?
    By Amaya Gayle Gregory

    What would I change if I could? You and I both know I can’t, but it’s a fun exercise anyway. I would have been less of a know-it-all on my spiritual journey. It seems to be a side-effect of the path. Spiritual folks develop an all-knowing buffer to protect against their inevitable surrender to the unknown, but understanding that now didn’t make it gentler on me or those I loved, let alone those that I deemed not capable of getting it 😉 Yeah … I’d have dropped the spiritual snob act. I’d have recognized that spiritual radicals are only different on the outside from radical right Christians, and that the surface doesn’t really matter as much as I thought. We are all doing our couldn’t be otherwise things, playing our perfect roles. I’d have learned to bow down humbly before my fellow man, regardless of whether I agreed with him or not. We’re all in this together and not one of us will get out alive. Read more→
