Art of the Occult

Un libro con obras de arte realizadas con inspiración de varias corrientes del ocultismo: Kabbalah, hermetismo, alquimia... hay mucha inspiración dentro de este tomo pero al mismo tiempo terminas quedándote con ganas de más. Siempre se agradece ver obra de Remedios Varo, así como pinturas de Piet Mondrian más allá de las "Composiciones". En un universo ideal tiene 5000 páginas más.

This is exactly the sort of utterly beautiful and bewitching book that would've lit my mind on fire as a kid and sent me off to the library, my book full of scraps of paper marking all the occult traditions, practices, and artists I absolutely had to look up. Which is not to say it's any less inspiring to me now, but that I happily envy those who find this engrossing volume at a formative age. Clearly organized by occult themes, traditions, and practitioners, both the book as a whole and each individual section are vividly and thoughtfully introduced by S. Elizabeth, our insightful and lyrical author. And each arresting page is a potential springboard for one's own artistic creativity or to go learn more about these fascinating artists and the varied aspects of the occult that inspired them.
