Fire and Shadow: Spirituality in Contemporary Australian Art delves into the profound interplay between spirituality and artistic expression. Rather than a comprehensive history, this book focuses on a curated selection of established and mid-career Australian artists. These creators, spanning various disciplines painting, sculpture, installation art, and mixed media incorporate spiritual elements and themes into their work. The concept of spirituality transcends mere religious dogma; it encompasses the sacred and the transcendental dimensions of human consciousness. Artists engage with this mystery in diverse ways. Some draw from religious traditions like Christianity or Buddhism, while others approach it instinctually, free from rigid doctrines. For some, spirituality resides in the latent potentialities of human awareness an innate sacredness glimpsed only partially. Others perceive the spirit as an extension of conscious thought. And still, some find the sacred within the earth, rites of passage, and archetypal mythologies from both Eastern and Western traditions. Fire and Shadow invites us to explore these artistic expressions, where the mundane and the mystical converge. Through their creations, these Australian artists illuminate the ineffable, inviting us to contemplate the deeper currents that flow through our existence.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. Size 295mmX265mm. Fire and Shadow is neither a history nor an overview but focuses on a selection of established and mid-career Australian artists -- among them painters, sculptors, installation artists and practitioners of mixed media -- who are incorporating spiritual elements and themes in their work. The result is fascinating because the individual perspectives are so diverse, encompassing Roman Catholic and Afro-Christianity, Aboriginal 'dreamings', apocalyptic surrealism, archetypal 'Goddess' imagery, alchemical symbalism and Buddhist mysticism. **The jacket has a protective plastic cover.**.
