Art As a Way: A Return to the Spiritual Roots Reviews

Een dame in een lovend filmpje noemde dit boek "haar bijbel". Ik raakte nieuwsgierig, deed mijn best het boek te bemachtigen, maar ik vond het nogal pretentieus. Lastig leesbaar door het met de hand geschreven verhaal (wat trouwens nog een reden was dat ik interesse had in dit boek). Het zijn gedachtes die je toevertrouwd aan je dagboek. Mijmeringen, innerlijke gesprekken die je met jezelf voert en niet zozeer deelt met anderen. Ik ben enigszins teleurgesteld; het is voor mij een te persoonlijke benadering van het onderwerp.

Art As A Way informs us as to the pure way, the authentic way of being, seeing, drawing and how when achieved we can become illuminated by all things. A piece of paper and a pencil are all you need to have a conversation with a beautiful scene or object in nature. This practice will bit by bit reveal the hidden core of your being.

2007 wrote: A gift from Becky. This well compiled book is a combination of the author's notes and sketches on art over several years. Franck has also wrote books on Zen Buddhism and relates the creation of art to several religious and spiritual philosophies. Art as a representation of self and as a way to communicate and heal are emphasized. Besides this, the art work is unique and ties in well with his words. An overall good calm read as I tend to freak out about where my work is going. also paired well with the next read.
