SACRED CHAPEL FOR NEW YORK

 

New York worshipers at the church of psychedelia are soon to have

their own chapel in Chelsea. Painter Alex Grey -- the former

scientific illustrator and East Village art scene stalwart who has a

wide New Age following for his cosmic, figurative paintings (see

www.alexgrey.com) -- is opening his long-planned Chapel of Sacred

Mirrors upstairs from the Spirit New York nightclub at 540 West 27th

Street on Sept. 22, 2004.

 

Designed as a "sanctuary for contemplation and a center for events

encouraging the creative spirit," the installation features Grey's

monumental series of 21 works (19 paintings and two etchings).

 

Each work depictss a life-sized figure embodying a different energetic

or symbolic system; viewers are invited to "mirror the images" to gain

a sense of seeing "ourselves and each other as reflections of the

divine."

 

The chapel's programs include "full moon" prayer gatherings that

feature chanting, praying and drumming, and meetings of the

Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, a group that

strives to develop psychedelic drugs into FDA-approved prescription

medicines.

Hi Lulu, Alex Grey has been around for quite a while but I'm late to

the game. I've seen bits of his work here and there over the years and

finally decided to take the Alex Grey plunge by purchasing 2 of his

wonderful books and a great DVD called 'MindArt' which presents his

beautiful art as he's interviewed.

 

A neat sychronocity occured a couple weeks ago where I has accessing

Mr. Grey's site to share with my sister (who god forbid will never

touch a computer) and while I has clicking through his works of art

she offered me a card which had the schedules of the phases of the moon.

 

The background of which, was one of Mr. Grey's works of art.

 

Now this was something she wanted to give me before ever hearing of

his name or seeing his work and the timing was divine.

 

Synchronicity is music that resonates everywhere all the time

if only we would hear...

What a rare blessing it is, to have one's love and inspiration fused

into one's livelihood.
