About
An Exhibition of Art that is created as Ritual, Interpersonal Transformation, and or Gateways of Consciousness. 

There is a somewhat hidden legacy of the great artists throughout history that have explored the transcendent through their art. The Spiritual in Abstract Painting from 1890-1985 offers a series of exposés illuminating the explorations by artists such as William Blake, Malchevich, and Mark Rothko into the mysterious realms of metaphysics and beyond. They all illuminate the potential of the universe and its symbiotic relationship with human nature. The new sciences are also revealing the mysteries of what the ancients knew through holistic systems and Quantum theory. Jung offers springs of hope to my ideal of being a visionary artist. “We see that [the visionary artist] has drawn upon the healing and redeeming forces of the collective psyche that underlies consciousness with its isolation and its painful errors: that she/he penetrated to that matrix of life in which all men/women are embedded, which imparts a common rhythm of human existence, and allows the individual to communicate his feeling and his striving to mankind as whole.” (Jung). This exhibition explores contemporary artists, who see their ART as objects of power. For millennia, indigenous traditions, humans have used objects in creative ways to gain wisdom, heal sickness, avert suffering, and navigate life.

 Curators: Award winning Transformative Artist and Educator Lisa Rasmussen M.F.A. and Transformative Artist, Ceylan Fadiloglu, M.A.

Art and Activism @ Art 4 All!

It was amazing on August 4th, 2012,  transformative artists, environmentalists, models, celebrities, and locals all participated in Hands Across the Sand one of the world's largest gatherings against offshore drilling ever held, Similar events were held across the country and around the world, showing thousands of people united against offshore drilling and in favor of clean energy. The Malibu Hands Across the Sands also aligned with the important message to be conscious of single use items and to consider alternative ways to reduce waste, so it does not end up in our Oceans.




In companion with Hands Across the Sand, there was a fashion shoot and trunk show.Art 4 All  People, hosted the event. Spear heading the Art Action was Marina DeBris's Beach Couture (fashion made from trash found on local beaches.) She had a transformative Art fashion shoot. Models included Tanna Frederick, actress, environmentalist and founder of Save Our Surf. At 12:00 noon we all held hands. in global solidarity with Hands Across the Sand. It was a really powerful action! Afterwards, we returned to Art 4 All for a talk from Tanna Frederick,trunk show and some food.
