The premise of the exhibition is to unite four artists from different corners of the world, America, Japan, Australia and Portugal, who’s thread of continuity is to make art that achieves for the artist and consequently for the viewer an enriched state of consciousness, or the opening of the third eye, the locus of occult power and wisdom in the forehead of a deity, especially the god Shiva. Each of these artists, as well as the included peripheral material, aspires to induce, through the medium of visual art, a state of affirmation to the seeker of a cosmic order that perpetuates a higher sense of the spiritual (or meta-physical) connectedness amongst us.

The Living Gallery Outpost is located at 246 East 4th Street New York NY 10009.

Exhibition hours are Wednesday October 3 4 – 8pm, Thursday October 4 2 – 10pm, Friday 5 – Sunday 7 1 – 8 pm

or by appointment at 646 709 4725.
