Exhibition 3: 'Drawing Out the Spirit'
May, 2005

“ Art is a powerful stimulator of sympathetic insight. Art is subtle and delicate, and it makes the mind also in its movements subtle and delicate. It is suggestive, and the intellect habituated to the appreciation of art is quick to catch suggestions, mastering not only, as the scientific mind does, that which is positive and on the surface, but that which leads to ever fresh widening and subtilising of knowledge and opens a door into the deeper secrets of inner nature where the positive instruments of science cannot take their depth or measure.
Beyond and above this intellectual utility of Art, there is a higher use, the noblest of all, its service to the growth of spirituality in the race.....Spirituality is a wider thing than formal religion and it is in the service of spirituality that Art reaches its highest self-expression. “

Sri Aurobindo,’ Lights on Life Problems,’ from God in All Worlds ( 1995 ) by Lucinda Vardey. Millenium Books.

' True art is an expression of man's search for a relationship with the spiritual. No artist would create in his medium if there were not alive in him impulses springing from the spiritual world. It cannot be denied that our materialistically oriented civilization diverts us, in many ways, from the gravity of art.'
Rudolph Steiner ( 1923 ) The Arts and Their Mission. Anthroposophic Press.
