SUMMARY:AbsoluteEye : From Orderly Chaos to Found Modern Art - ONLINE
DESCRIPTION:TWO GROUPS ARE AVAILABLE :  \nThis page is to register for Saturday afternoons\nRegistration is through Toronto Shambhala Center\, see the link below. \n  \n“ Chaos should be regarded as extremely good news” \nChogyam Trungpa \n  \nThis Zoom exploration engages direct perception without reference points. Not even the reference point of contemplative\nart. It is a free flowing perception orderly chaos. The images are energetic and vivid. They are Found Modern Art. \nThe Nalanda Miksang path and pedagogy orients from Chogyam Trungpa’s Dharma Art teaching: The Three Levels of Perception.\nThese three levels parallel the Buddhist three levels: Hinayana\, Mahayana and Vajrayana. This contemplative art perception\nengagement is the “Tantric” level. You will learn to “let go\,” enter a “visual gap” and let the visual world manifest in its own order chaos way. \nThe aesthetic of these artistic images resonates with certain paintings of Modern American Art. This course includes a cultural\nstudies aspect. We will consider the Assemblage School of American Modern Art which includes artists such as Robert Rauschenberg as well as some Pop Artists. \nOne of the intentions of this course is to produce brilliant found modern art images. You will become absolute photo eye artists. \nThe course will include contemplation of Dharma Art and Modern Art texts\, teachings\, image assignments and image reviews. \nNo photographic experience necessary. You need a digital camera. (a smart phone is workable).

SUMMARY:Color Plus / Plus - An introduction to Found Modern Art - ONLINE
DESCRIPTION:TWO GROUPS AVAILABLE :  Wednesday evenings OR Sunday afternoons\nIn Nalanda Miksang Contemplative Photography\, our first assignment/exploration is “color as color”. “Color as Color” is the first step in making direct contact with the basic elements or features of the visual world/experience: color\, then also\, light\, texture\, pattern\, space\, and dot in space. These are the “visual chords” that become the basis of the Nalanda Miksang “visual music”. \nAt the same time\, each of these visual elements has its personal dimension and aesthetic. For instance\, when we photograph color as color\, it can spontaneously open to abstract color.  This goes beyond the context\, like a “red fire engine” but even beyond “fire engine red” and into red as red\, red as the ways of red. \nThis kind of abstract color has its own aesthetic\, and resonates with the abstraction of some American Modern Art\, the Color Field school in particular. This school includes what we call “color as color” but also goes beyond. These Color Field artists include Ellsworth Kelly\, Barnet Newman\, Kenneth Noland\, and more. \nIn Color Plus/Plus\, we will practice photographing\, but we will also study and contemplate these Color Field artists. Through this study and practice\, you will become Color Field artists. Your images will be forms of found Color Field abstract art. \n\nWednesday evenings\, 6:30-8:30 Eastern Time (Toronto)\n4/10\, 4/24; 5/8\, 5/22; 6/12\, 6/22 \nTo register\, please email Miriam Hall at miriam@herspiral.com.
