The Symmetry of Thought and Being

Gallery Hours:  Daily 10 AM to 8 PM.

 

 

THE SYMMETRY OF THOUGHT AND BEING                                          

   

     This exhibition will explore the relations between the three components of Symmetry, Thought, and Being: 

     1. "Symmetry," the principle of balance, the balance of elements in Matter, the "static equilibrium" of   purely

      balanced weights versus the "dynamic equilibrium" 

     or  asymmetry of proportioned objects;   

     2. "Thought" as the principle of personal interpretation of life, existence, perceived objects, Matter and ephemera, 

     and the personal interpretation of experience: ... Descartes "I think therefore I am" ; and 

     3. "Being," in the experience and orientation of the physical world 

     and metaphysical dimensions -- the principles of "Becoming" as process; and of "Being" in the reality of

     Matter and Dark Matter: ... as the early Greek 

     philosopher Parmenides surmised: "Being is.  Non-Being is;  Being and Non-Being are...:    

    

      Aside from philosophical and artistic considerations, this exhibition explores the sensations and sensibilities

     of personal worlds from many perspectives, the meaning and experience of being a person, being an individual in

     a world of responsibilities and choices, the thinking which is expressed and the balances required in life.  

    

     The purpose of asking these questions is to perceive and understand the Universe, and to evolve the human condition: 

     "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness !"
