Great art requires technique but also taps into deep and vast dimensions of human existence. Who are some artists who have explored these dimensions, such that their work necessarily unfolds from these contemplative wellsprings of life? This class will explore the powerful combination of meditation and art using Tibetan master Chogyam Trungpa's work True Perception: The Path of Dharma Art as a reference point. The course will introduce participants to basic meditative techniques as practiced by these artists. The course will consider the spontaneous discipline of meditative art in the workings of various artists, both Western and Eastern, ancient to contemporary, in the creation of sacred and secular art.
