FURrealism - An ART Movement for the 21st Century FURrealist Artwork can be considered maps of/to future realities. The canvas is an alchemical window into other realities. Realities yet to be created, yet to be manifested. They are used to ignite and fuel the collective mind for co-creative manifestation. Once imagined the mind cannot un-imagine. Once known the mind cannot un-know. Once seen the mind cannot un-see. The role of the artist is show the mind the direction it could take, the possible, the future, the potential, to inspire, to energize, to compel...and so much more. Time is considered strictly linear in the conventional understanding - past, present and future within the third dimension. Are you FURreal ??? Is this FURreal ??? FURreal Artefacts are considered 3D Earth access points to inter-dimension through which the arrow of 3D time is launched from the mind of the artist. The artist follows the arrow and records the interaction of forces as they coalesce into form according the strict discipline 3D time imposes. In 3D a human can discern about 10 million colours. An infinity of harmonic combinations arise from a strict mathematical basis - effecting the human observer in specific psychological and emotional ways - in much the same way that music effects us. Harmonic colour and form relationships continue a long tradition of Master Artists, all of whom built their iconic and famous works from the starting point of harmony. FURreal artists do not try to re-write the rules. Rather the rules are applied in ever more nuanced ways. The beginning of the 20th century is considered the end of an old and the start of a new era. A moment when a world in turmoil gave rise to the emergence of artists whose diverse experiments resulted in the birth of a multitude of avant-garde art movements. The birth of non-objective art - known as Abstraction. The scientific and technological revolution of the time, combined with a new spiritual longing for the fourth dimension, beyond the structural and material limitations of objective reality. When applied to art gave rise to the need for new forms. Artists were able to dissect from objective reality abstract forms. Forms made free and pure. Forms expressing an inner meaning or inner movement of a spiritual realm. Just as scientists of the time were probing deeply into the structure the physical world, artists probed deeply into the color and form of the painterly event. The concept of synthesis implied the gradual disappearance of borders between the various genre and forms of the arts. Artists compare colour and form to music, as the inner dynamism of the abstract came into the world, its free lines, its color harmony, its reduction of the object into a pure stylistic gesture. FURrealism emerges at an equally momentous time in history. A time when the miracle of technology appears to rise above all else, to make everything possible and yet threatens to overshadow everything. The artist overshadowed by the technician with a digital agenda and a mathematical precision. Traditional art mediums overshadowed and rendered irrelevant and unnecessary, a historical curiosity the world of image making has evolved beyond. A time consuming technical skill which is no longer valued. A time when more than ever before the nihilism of modern life threatens to inoculate us all from a world outside that of the senses and the machines we have befriended. Commodification and globalisation of everything including art is almost complete. A time when new concepts of being and our understanding of the human experience are in a state of extreme transformation. Now FURrealism appears to offer a vision of the future in keeping with the theoretical and philosophical underpinnings and development of art history. FURrealists prove that traditional art mediums are in fact magically energised and will forever remain the key method of inspiring the human mind to create the world of the senses. FURrealists create work using traditional art media - oil on canvas and linen, pencil on paper, hand worked marble sculpture, ink, pastel, etc. FURrealism proves that despite the emergence of digital methods to create visual art, traditional materials remain by far the best. Any digitally created image can be rendered by a Master Artist using only traditional art materials and strictly by hand. FURrealists use the powerful new technology as a tool to reach more people, to attract a diverse audience, but not as a substitute for traditional materials. What does the name stand for? The name is an acronym - the first designation being as follows. F uture U topic R eality ...realism F stands for Future a word which contains ideas about all potential manifestations of reality, all possibility, etc... the mind seeks relevance, hope, salvation, understanding, dreams in the future. The Future is considered to be positive and full of potential. The Future is endlessly Futuristic U stands for Utopic or Utopia and You - the self. Utopian ideals , the dream of ages, the end point of human civilisation and experience, the unattainable, the perfect society, the realm of the super-being, the purpose of war...etc. Considered to be unattainable by people today and yet we must not give up our higher aspirations. U (you) topic - the subject or topic is the self. The topic is YOU in a process of self realisation. Nothing has changed. Here YOU - the self, the human, the embodied mind are the cause, the source, the reason. Contemplation of FURreal Art accelerates the process of self realisation automatically in all viewers and is a key reason for it to exist and appear at this time. There are currently 4 FURrealists Scott Alex Simon Ira There are many others - as yet unidentified FURrealists out there. So ask yourself the question.... Am I FURreal? YES)) so get in touch with us.....and we do hope you enjoyed the sales pitch ...te heh heh....
