ASGER JORN
ASGER JORN (Pour Nataly B.)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asger_Jorn
Asger
Oluf Jorn (March 3, 1914 - May 1, 1973) was a founding member of the
Situationist International, and a prolific artist and essayist. He was
born in Vejrum, in the northwest corner of Jutland, Denmark and
baptized Asger Oluf Jørgensen. In 1946 he changed his name into Asger
Oluf Jorn.
He traveled again to France where he was a founding
member of COBRA (a European avant-garde art movement), and edited
monographs of the Bibliotheque Cobra.
He returned, impoverished,
to Silkeborg in 1951 and resumed work in the ceramics field in 1953.
The following year he traveled to Albisola in Italy where he became
involved with an offshoot of COBRA, the International Movement For An
Imaginist Bauhaus.
He met Guy Debord in 1954, who was to became
a close friend. The two men collaborated on two artist's books, Fin de
Copenhagen (1957) and Mémoires (1959), along with prints, and forewords
to each other's work.
He was a prime mover of the merger of the
COBRA with the Lettriste Internationale and London Psychogeographical
Association to form the Situationist International (SI) in 1957. Here
he applied his scientific and mathematical knowledge drawn from Henri
Poincaré and Niels Bohr to develop his situlogical technique.
In
1961 he left the SI, largely as a consequence of the fact that he was
becoming a well-known artist which did not sit well with the SI,
although his own departure was voluntary (which in itself was unusual
for the SI, as it was prone to frequent purges and expulsions of
members). He went on to found the Scandinavian Institute of Comparative
Vandalism and contributed material to the Situationist Times. Later, he
donated a museum for modern art to the Danish town of Silkeborg, near
where he grew up. He was to remain close to Debord, however, and
continued to fund Situationist publications.[2]
His philosophical system Triolectics was given a practical manifestation through the development of Three sided football
His
first American solo exhibition was at the Lefebre Gallery in 1962.
After 1966, Jorn continued to produce oil paintings while traveling
throughout Europe collecting images with photographer Gerard Francesci
for his vast archive of "10,000 Years of Nordic Folk Art." He traveled
extensively, to Cuba, England, and the far east. Jorn traveled to the
United States for the first and only time in 1970, for a gallery
opening at Lefebre Gallery. He had earlier asserted that he refused to
travel to a country that made visitors sign a statement maintaining
that they were not communists.
During the course of his artistic
career he produced over 2500 paintings, prints, drawings, ceramics,
sculptures, artist's books, collages, décollages, and collaborative
tapestries.
He died in Aarhus, Denmark on May 1, 1973. He is buried in Grötlingbo, on the island of Gotland in Sweden.

WILLIAM BLAKE
TO THE EVENING STAR
Thou fair-hair'd angel of evening, Now, whilist the sun rests on the mountains, light Thy bright torch of love; thy radiant crown Put on, and smile upon our evning bed ! Smile on our loves, and while tho drawest the Blue curtains of the sky, scatter thy silver dew On every flower that shuts its sweet eyes In timely sleep. Let thy west wind sleep on The lake; speak silence with thy glimmering eyes, And wash the dusk with silver. Soon, full soon, Dost thou withdraw; then the wolf rages wide, And the lion glares thro' the dun forest: The fleeces of our flocks are cover'd with Thy sacred dew: protect them with thine influence.
William Blake (Poems)

ESSENCE OV THE MOON IN TANTRIC WAY
ESSENCE OV THE MOON IN TANTRIC WAY
The sacred lingam of Shiva, clearly identified by the two tridents, surrounded by four symbols of the yoni. Above the lingam a moon, not always a female symbol. In the tantric alchemy of the Tamil Siddhas, for example, male semen is known as essence of the moon (Tamil "velli").
