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.

SUMMARY:Level I: Looking and Seeing An Introduction to Contemplative Photography - ONLINE
DESCRIPTION:Miksang\, meaning “Good Eye” in Tibetan\, is a form of contemplative photography based on the dharma art teachings of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. \nMiksang teachings help practitioners to see the world as it is\, in the absence of the narratives and concepts usually superimposed by the mind\, and in the absence of comparing and contrasting mind or personal preference. \nEach Zoom session will include photographic explorations\, sample images for each week’s content and review of student images and discussion. Feedback is compassionate and highly individualized. We will also examine and discuss photographers and artists whose work is directly influenced by contemplative practices. \nThe text for the course is Looking at Seeing: Nalanda Miksang Contemplative Photography by John McQuade and Miriam Hall\, which is available on Amazon.com as a paperback or e-book. \nNo photography experience is necessary! Just use whatever camera you have available\, including your cell phone. \nDates:  April 13\, 20\, May 4\, 11\, 18\, 25\nMeets: Saturdays\, 5 pm – 6:30 pm (ET). —-  CHANGE OF MEETING TIME\nLocation: Online Zoom Classroom \nCourse Tuition: $250 (or whatever you can afford)\nCourse Level/Prerequisite: Open to all skill levels.\nClass Size: This course is limited to 10 students. \nTo Register: Contact Tim Auman at aumantl@wfu.edu
