Visionary artist Alex Grey joins us Februrary 22nd

Visionary artist and co-founder of the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors in NYC, Alex Grey's paintings “X-rays” multi-dimensional reality. His visual meditations on the nature of consciousness interweave biological anatomy with psychic/spiritual energy. From rock stars to scientists, Grey's art inspires, informs and illuminates the inexplicable. Join us for an evening, February 22nd at 7pm, of discussion with this icon and discover the next level of your own divinity. If you want a sneak peek of Alex, you can click on the YouTube links on the bottom right to a few videos featuring Alex.

This is event is part of "Brainwave" which takes place at six NY institutions and asks how art, music, and meditation affect the brain and offers countless answers in more than a hundred public events, ranging from an exhibition of contemporary art and a cinema series to cutting-edge concerts, performances, talks, and panels.

Here are a couple of reviews of Alex's work:

"Mr. Grey's paintings, as detailed and anatomically accurate as
medical illustrations, present man as an archetypal being struggling
toward cosmic unity...Grey's vision of a flawed but perfectible
mankind stands as an antidote to the cynicism and spiritual malaise
prevalent in much contemporary art."

--New York Times

" Alex Grey is making some of the most beautifully refined imagist
work in the country today."

--Walter Hopps, senior curator, Guggenheim Museum and Menil Collection
