SUMMARY:Working with Steiner’s epoch motifs as a schooling for the ordering of the soul-life
DESCRIPTION: \nThey ‘lead us to confront the greatest of riddles – that  of human destiny’ \nA series of 7 experiential webinars + weekend studio\n  \nImmerse yourself in this unique journey through our soul/spiritual development! From our primeval beginnings\, through Lemuria and Atlantis to today and into the 6th Slavic epoch\, we can capture something of the ‘quiver’ of recollections of spiritual history lying deep in our soul-life through working actively with these motifs. \n  \nWhat is it about?  \nThis practice-based course explores Steiner’s Goetheanum ceiling sketches\, a sequence given to the painters as a picture progression of the spiritual history of humanity. He described them as a training in karmic vision that could potentially awaken a perception of karma. We will work with selected motifs through lecture\, study\, contemplative observation and drawing.  \nBackground notes \nRudolf Steiner created a substantial portfolio of drawings\, pastel sketches and paintings for the renewal of the visual arts\, many destined for the interior of the First Goetheanum\, with the purpose of helping us find a new relationship to art as a basis of spiritual awakening. The artforms in the first Goetheanum were intended to support a training in karmic vision through Art. \nArt works upon the human soul to awaken in it a feeling\, a deep feeling\, for the spiritual realities of what is portrayed. By actively working with these motifs\, we can approach an inner experience of their truths. Not only through the content but through the inward experience of them. By working actively with their forms and processes\, we can learn to transform the soul body so that it can prepare itself for karmic awakening. \nFor the ceiling of the first Goetheanum\, Steiner gave a series of ‘epoch’ motifs to the artists – 12 sketches for the large cupola of the first Goetheanum and 7 Sketches for the small cupola\, culminating in the motif of the Representative of Humanity. We will explore these motifs: their gestures\, meanings and role in our soul/spiritual evolution.  \nProgram  \n7 x 1.5hr webinars approx. twice a month on Saturday afternoons\, 4.00-5.30pm. \n12/2 Workshop 1: The Elohim motif from the Creation trio – completed\n26/2 Workshop 2:  Lemuria and Atlantis\n19/3 Workshop 3:  Ancient India – Ancient Greece\n2/4 Workshop 4:  The IAO motif: the Cosmic Word\n23/4 Workshop 5:  Faust and his Genius\n7/5 Workshop 6:  The Germanic and Slavic motifs\n21/5 Workshop 7: Lucifer\, Ahriman and the Representative of Humanity \nEach session includes a short lecture\, experiential artwork\, contemplation and discussion as the foundation of a schooling for the ordering of our soul life. The series culminates in an optional weekend studio where participants can turn their sketches and studies into artforms that reflect their personal relationship to the evolution of consciousness. \nEach session will be recorded and will be available for registrants. \nArt material list and background reading suggestions emailed at registration. \nWho is it for? \nFor students of Anthroposophy\, Steiner teachers\, artists and anyone interested in understanding Steiner’s approach to the spiritual evolution of humanity. \nBeginners in drawing are welcome. You do not need technical skills in the visual arts to find these workshops fruitful. These experiential workshops employ the anthroposophic approach to colour and process but the focus is on experiencing\, not learning drawing techniques. \nWhat dates are the workshops? \nSaturday afternoons 4.00-5.30pm AEDT (until it ends\, then AEST)\nWebinar workshops: 12/26 February | 19 March | 2/23 April | 7/21 May\nWeekend studio workshop: 3-5 June 2022 \nMissed most of the  webinars but want to join individual sessions? \nYou can still join us and catch up via the video recordings. Just contact Fiona Campbell \nHow much does it cost?  \nOnline series:  | $200 for full 7 webinars | $33 per individual workshop. \nWeekend studio: Linuwel School\, Maitland NSW\, 3-5 June \nWhat’s included in the price?  \nA video of each webinar\, list of suggested readings and a curated selection of copies of the motifs for private study only.  \nWhere do I register? \nAfter registration\, participants will be sent the Zoom workshop link and a list of suggested readings and materials.  The Zoom link will be sent again one (1) hour before the webinar. \nRegister here! \nPlease login for each session via your Zoom app and not via Eventbrite. \nFor more information \nPlease contact Fiona Campbell and share this flyer with others who might be interested.

SUMMARY:Working with Steiner’s Colour lectures: image and lustre colours
DESCRIPTION: \nA masterclass studio with artist Fiona Campbell\nWhen we experience the life of colour\,  \nwe step out of our own skins and take part in cosmic life. \n  \nYou are invited to join artist and researcher Fiona Campbell for an online masterclass (7 sessions) as she explores the nature of the image and lustre colours\, as outlined the first Colour lectures\, given by Rudolf Steiner in Dornach 6 to 8 May 1921 . Paint alongside her and share in her process as she explores the experience of green\, black\, incarnadine and white\, in polarity to the shining soul qualities experienced in blue\, red and yellow. \nIn these lectures\, Steiner indicates how colour can affect our health\, our sense of wellbeing\, and our soul life. Distinguishing between the image and lustre nature of the seven colours form the basis of Steiner’s approach to painting. Here he lays a foundation for a practical technique of working with colour that leads to a new direction in artistic creativity. \nYou don’t have to be a trained artist\, or even very experienced\, to enjoy this course\, but you do need self-motivation and some painting technique.  \nBackground information  \nSteiner had an abiding desire to see a cultural and spiritual renewal emerge in the present time. through the arts. He said: ‘If you realise that art always has a relation to the spirit\, you will understand that both in creating and appreciating it\, art is something through which one enters the spiritual world.’ \nFollowing the success of her first online masterclass on Steiner’s Nine Training Sketches for the Painters\, this course is an essential foundation of any artist interested in the anthroposophic approach to understanding colour. It is also a follow up to answer some of the questions that arose during the first course\, but we welcome newcomers. \nWho are the masterclasses for?  \n\nFor artists\, art therapists and art students looking to find a path of soul/spiritual development through the arts.\nFor anyone interested in gaining an appreciation of art as a revelation of spiritual realities through painting.\n\nTo get the most out of this course\, it is anticipated participants work alongside Fiona in-class and on their own between the fortnightly sessions.  \nRequired: basic watercolour wet-on-dry skills (you can use wet-on-wet or any other painting media\, such as oils or acrylics\, if you prefer\, but technical advice is not directed towards these media).  \nPlease note: this is not a step-by-step instructional class so not suitable for beginners unless you are adventurous and self-motivated! \nWhat dates are the classes? \n2-4pm AEST Friday afternoons \n13 May-5 August \nThe masterclasses are recorded but live participation is preferred\, unless your time zone makes this impossible.  \nHow much does it cost? \nOnline series:  $250 for 7×2 hr masterclasses or $42 for individual sessions. \nHow do I register? \nRegister here! \nPayment details and a list of suggested materials and readings available upon registration. \nFor more information \nFor more information about the masterclass or for any questions\, please contact Fiona Campbell \n\n \n  \nAbout Fiona Campbell  \nFiona Campbell is a visual artist\, researcher\, lecturer and arts educator.
