SUMMARY:The Parsifal Project: a community arts project
DESCRIPTION: \nThe Parsifal Project\n  \n  \nThe Parsifal Project is a community project that aspires towards a contemporary envisioning of the famous medieval legend\, one that recontextualises the Parsifal legend for a modern multicultural audience.  \nWhat is it about? \nWriters\, poets\, philosophers and artists tell us that myths and legends hold spiritual insights into the sacred wisdom of past cultures\, but what about the spiritual insights we need to navigate our current world? Drawing on the cultural heritages we bring with us\, the Parsifal Project seeks find meaningful resonance between this medieval myth and contemporary intergenerational audiences. \nUsing the talents of a diverse cast and a script written by playwright Peter Oswald\, the project aims to make a significant contribution to our understanding of the Parsifal legend in light of Anthroposophy\, as a cosmopolitan Michaelic impulse and as a metaphor for modern human development. The story is our future; if so\, its mythic themes could be critical to today’s youth\, to all of us.  \nWhether your interest is in the spiritual foundations of the legend\, the literature\, creative writing or performing\, there is something here for anyone and everyone fascinated by the whole collection of Grail legends and its interpretations\, medieval or modern\, book or film. \nTimeline for the project \nThe project has five stages highlighting different arts and media: \n\nJune –  July 2022: Parsifal Unpacked\nCompleted. Explored the original story through performance\, literary text and thematic discussion.  \nSeptember – November 2022: Parsifal Reimagined\nCompleted. A series of  writing workshops where we reimagine the story through the lens of current cultural perspectives. \nJanuary 2023 – November 2023 : Parsifal Rescripted\nOngoing script development in conjunction with performance-based creative development intensives with on-the-floor exploration on the themes explored in Stages 1 and 2.  \nFebruary 2024 – February 2025: Parsifal Reinterpreted\nAuditions\, eurythmy and music workshops from February. Rehearsals begin in April 2024\, using the script based on Parsifal Rescripted. \nApril -May 2025: The Parsifal Project performance\nSaturday 26 April at 5.30 pm ACST\nSaturday 3rd May at at 5.30 pm ACST\nSunday 4th May at 2.30 pm ACST\nVenue: Living Arts Centre\, Mount Barker Waldorf School\, Mt Barker\, SA \n\n  \n  \nProject Director: Jo-anne Sarre\, Artistic Director of Ink Pots Arts \nJo-anne Sarre has worked in the performing arts sector as a freelance director\, actor\, storyteller\, playwright and educator since her four-year Speech and Drama training at The Harkness Studio\, Sydney in 1986.

SUMMARY:Save the date!  Envisioning the Future\, Youth Section online 16 July
DESCRIPTION: \nComing together in the spirit of our common work\n16 July 2022 online | 21-25 June 2023 at the Goetheanum \n \nGreetings from the Youth Section at the Goetheanum!\n \nWe are reaching out to you today to invite you to save the date for two special gatherings.\n\nIn preparation for this call\, we would like to ask for your help in shaping the content by sending us any questions relating to the Youth Section’s work that are currently living in your local groups.\n \n\nEnvisioning the Future |  Youth Section Worldwide Call  \nThe first meeting is an online call via Zoom on Saturday 16th of July 2022 from 15:00 – 17:00 CEST. At this meeting\, Constanza Kaliks and Nathaniel Williams together with the Youth Section at the Goetheanum’s team would like to share with you their vision for the Section’s leadership transition period. We hope this will be the first of many moments in which we begin envisioning with you all the foundations of the new period of work that will start in Spring 2023\, when Nathaniel Williams will overtake the leadership of our Section.\n \nSome of the questions we would like to touch upon are:\n\nWhat is the purpose and task of the Youth Section in the context of the Anthroposophical Movement and our present times?\n \nHow can we develop an understanding for our foundations\, which in 2024 will become 100 years old.\n \nAnd how can these inform our future steps? How is the relationship of the Youth Section to the rest of the movement\, for example the School of Spiritual Science and the other Sections\, the General Anthroposophical Society and the local Societies?\n\nAdditionally\, we will also welcome the recently founded Youth Section in Oceania to our Worldwide Network!\n\n\n \nYouth Section Co-Workers Gathering |  June 2023 at the Goetheanum\n\nThe second save the date we would like to share with you is for a Youth Section Co-Workers Gathering at the Goetheanum from 21-25th June 2023. This gathering will be an opportunity for delegates of each local Youth Section to come to the Goetheanum and work with one another for an intensive week. It would be wonderful if you could already save the date and let us know if you would like to attend this and help shape the program. This event is organised in the spirit of out 2019 meeting “Building Bridges Beyond Borders”.\n \nWe hope you are as excited as we are to come together again\, first online and then in person in a year’s time! Please let us know if you will be there.\n  \nWith our best thoughts from the Goetheanum\,\n \nAndrea de la Cruz\, Gaia Termopoli\, Ioana Viscrianu\, Jacinta Gorchs and \nJohannes Kronenberg with Constanza Kaliks\n\n\nYouth Section at the Goetheanum

Craig Wiggins \nSESSION 3: The Founding of ‘The Esoteric Youth Group’ \nA snapshot into the biographies of the original members of the Circle. From The Esoteric School – Esoteric Lessons 1913-1923\, in the collected works of Rudolf Steiner \nOctober 17\, 2022 at 8 am AEST \nFor more information \nYou can find more information about this series on the ASA website. \n  \n  \n\n‘You know that among the many clichés which became current in the nineteenth century\, it was said that the great pioneer of the nineteenth century closed his life by calling out to posterity: “More light!” As a matter of fact Goethe did not say “More light!” He lay on his couch breathing with difficulty and said: “Open the shutters!” That is the truth. The other is the cliché that has connected itself with it. The words Goethe really spoke are perhaps far more apt than the mere phrase “More light”. The state of things at the end of the nineteenth century does indeed arouse the feeling that our predecessors have closed the shutters. Then came the younger generation; they felt cramped; they felt that the shutters which the older generation had closed so tightly must be opened. Yes\, my dear friends\, I assure you that although I am old\, I shall tell you more of how we can now attempt to open the shutters again.’ \nRudolf Steiner\, GA 217\, THE YOUNGER GENERATION – Lecture 1 – Dornach\, 3 October 1922

SUMMARY:Tranformative Art & Architecture (TAA) Module 3
DESCRIPTION:The Human Being as Measure of All Things\nArchitectural Form and the Evolution of Consciousness \n  \nA Transformative Art & Architecture (TAA) seminar  \nAn online 6-day  seminar over 3 alternating weekends and 4 midweek evenings\, starting on Saturday 27th August 2022\,  9.45 am \nWhat is it about? \nTo be able to objectively evaluate architectural form we must base our judgements on an objective set of criteria. From a spiritual perspective\, the only truly objective criteria we have are those connected with the spiritual and physical nature of the human being. \nThe human being represents the 4th kingdom of nature\, which stands in a close relationship to the three lower\, animal\, plant and mineral kingdoms . In this module we explore this very relationship between the four nature kingdoms. The progression of consciousness from the mineral – plant – and animal – to the human kingdom provides us with valuable insights as to the hierarchy of form as well as the link  between form and consciousness. We conclude with a specific set of evaluation criteria. \nProgram \nOver the three weekends participants will gain practical and theoretic insights into the following questions: \n\nWhy and how is the human being a universal point of reference for Architectural Form?\nHow is the development of consciousness mirrored both in the historic forms of art & architecture and in the forms of the 4 kingdoms of nature?\nWhat relevance does the ascending hierarchy of form  have with respect to our modern forms of art & architecture?\nWhat is the Threefoldness of the Human Being and how is this mirrored in Architectural Form?\nWhat is the relationship between the 3 dimensions of space and our faculties of thinking\, feeling and willing?\nWhat is the architectural equivalent of the “body” “soul” and “spirit”\, of a building?\nWhat  objective criteria do we have by which architectural form is elevated to a higher level of consciousness?\n\n  \nOpen lecture: Introductory Lecture about the aims and methods of Transformative Art & Architecture \nDate: Thursday\, 25th August 2022 7.30 – 9 pm (Melbourne Time) \nThis lecture is open to all and is compulsory for all new  TAA students. Dedicated Zoom Link \nIf you cannot attend the lecture\, a recording of a similar lecture is available via this Vimeo link. \nDates \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nModule 3-Level I will be offered over 3 alternating weekends and 4 midweek evenings\, starting on Saturday 27th August 2022\,  9.45 am \nCost \n\n\n\nDiscount rate if paid upfront for the full course \n\n\n\n\nProfessional:  $900 (3 x $300)\nConcession:     $675  (3 x $225)\nFor Students:  $450 (3 x $50) \nNormal rate if paid per weekend \nProfessional:  $1150 (3 x $350)\nConcession:     $825  (3 x $275)\nFor Students:  $600 (3 x $200) \nAll payments dues in advance by the preceding Tuesday/s. The first payment due by Tuesday 23rd  August 2022. \nHow to enrol \nComplete this enrolment form   and send  it to Johannes & Sue \nUpon payment you will receive an email the receipt\, a more detailed program and the relevant zoom link which will remain the same for all sessions. \nFor more information \nFor more information\, please visit the Biosculptural Architecture website

SUMMARY:Working with Steiner's Seven School Sketches - further training for the artist
DESCRIPTION: \nA masterclass studio with artist Fiona Campbell\nThe Seven School (or Friedwart) Sketches motifs were given to the teachers as part of Rudolf Steiner’s new impulse for understanding both Art and Nature\, to help students explore objective spiritual laws\, where form arises out of colour\, not the reverse. The series moves from nature moods through the four elements to culminate in a Madonna and Child motif.  \n  \nWhat are the Training Sketches? \nTheses sketches are part of a comprehensive portfolio known as the Training Sketches for the Artists. The Nine Training Sketches (Nature Moods) and the Goetheanum epochs motifs form a substantial part of this portfolio. \nBut these sketches are not images of external natural events; they refer to acts that are effective in nature and human\, says Christiane Haid\, head of the Visual Arts Section and the Section for the Literary Arts and Humanities at the Goetheanum. She believes dealing with the creative forces can become the starting point for facing tasks in healing the world.  \nYou are invited to join artist and researcher Fiona Campbell for an online masterclass (seven sessions) as she works with these motifs as culmination of a year-long project to bring Steiner’s sketches and motifs to celebrate the centenary of Steiner’s gift to visual artists of the comprehensive portfolio known as the Training Sketches for the Artists. \nYou don’t have to be a professional artist\, or even very experienced\, to enjoy this course.  \nA training for the configuration of the soul \nThey are called training sketches\, but sometimes people wonder what it is they are training. They are not guides to technique\, nor are they supposed to be copied literally. They are not answers to what artworks of sunrises and trees and people should look like. Rather\, they are a training for the soul. What does this mean? \nThrough working with each sketch\, the painted is lead towards an inward experience of the motif. This opens up the way to true moral and spiritual experiences. By learning to unite herself with the inner essence of these motifs\, the artist can reveal through her work traces of her soul experience of the cosmos. \nHistorical background \nIn June 2022 it will have been one hundred years since the painter and sculptor Henny Geck asked Rudolf Steiner for a course that would bring about a renewal of the art of paining. Steiner gave a series of motifs to the artists in the form of rough sketches\, as a foundation for the renewal of the art of painting. the foundational program for painters seeking to work out of Anthroposophy. This program is comparable to the indications he gave to the eurythmists and has been practiced in different forms in anthroposophic art trainings since Steiner first gave the Nine Training Sketches to artist Henni Geck 100 years ago. \nThese masterclasses are part of a worldwide movement this year to celebrate Steiner’s  artistic impulse\, including the Goetheanum motifs\, on the centenary of the burning down of the First Goetheanum. They are also offering lectures and courses to help realise Rudolf Steiner’s vision of a new impulse in the arts and make these motifs visible to the wider public.  \nWho are the masterclasses for?  \nFor artists\, Steiner teachers\, art therapists and art students looking to find a path in soul/spiritual development through the arts; and for anyone interested in understanding more about Rudolf Steiner’s impulse in Art. \nTo get the most out of this course\, it is anticipated that participants work alongside Fiona in-class and on their own between sessions.  \nRequired \n\nfamiliarity with Steiner’s or Goethe’s colour theories\nbasic 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) \n\nThis is not a step-by-step instructional class so not suitable for beginners. \nWhat dates are the classes? \n2-4pm AEDT Friday afternoons \n2/16/30 September\, 14/28 October\, 11/25 November. \nSession 1: Sunrise\nSession 2:  Sunset\nSession 3:  Trees in Sunny Air\nSession 4:  Trees in Storm\nSession 5:  Sunlit Tree by a Waterfall\nSession 6:  Head Study\nSession 7: Madonna and Child \nHow much does it cost? \nOnline series:  $250 for 7×2 hr masterclasses or $42 for individual sessions. \nWhere do I register? \nRegister here! \nPlease register online.

SUMMARY:Parsifal Reimagined: Stage 2 of The Parsifal Project
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n\n \npresents \nParsifal Reimagined \nA series of 5 creative writing workshops\nreimagining the Parsifal legend for today’s world \nWorkshop facilitator: Fiona Campbell \n  \n\n“A journey of life and transformation \nThe light and darkness in our souls \nThe careless hero\, the broken sword \nThe suffering king\, the wasteland\, the rite of life \nThe many maidens on the hero’s path \nFrom dullness through doubt to glory” \n  \nHow can we portray these many forms of ‘Grail’ experiences for our time? What is the story we are telling ourselves? And where will our narrative take us? Through creative writing\, we seek to answer these questions for ourselves while also contributing together to the development of a new and original performance artwork. \nParticipate in this creation of performance art! \nCome join our online fortnightly writing workshops to be part of this process as we work towards developing a script for our stage production in 2023. You don’t have to be a writer to enjoy these workshops\, just a love of literature and bringing it to life.  \nFind out what it is like to be part of interactive community building working towards a multicultural\, multimedia stage performance\, as we explore the themes and our own meanings of the Parzival and Grail legends through the creative word. \nA Poetry and Prose Reading \nWe anticipate the workshops will culminate in a Poetry and Prose Reading event on 26 November for participants to share their works with family and friends. This will be a hybrid event\, online and on-the-ground in Mt Barker\, SA\, hosted by Ink Pots Arts.  \nTell me more … \nThis series of fortnightly workshops builds on the material introduced in Stage 1: Parsifal Unpacked. Having deconstructed the interwoven storylines of the Parsifal\, Grail and Arthurian legends\, we now use this material as inspiration for reimagining this medieval epic using our own words and cultural contexts. \nEach workshop uses one key theme elicited from Stage 1 as a prompt to explore its mood and meaning\, using different techniques to evoke poems\, short stories and imaginative word pictures.  \nThese workshops will also provide the foundation for the Stage 3 script development. \nWho are they for? \nFor anyone who wants to explore the Parzival legend through the creative word; who would like to deepen their own relationship to this story; or who enjoys being creative through crafting imaginative word pictures in community with others. \nYou do not have to be a practised writer to enjoy these workshops. The workshops provides both structured and unstructured exercises to help you learn how to craft with words.   \nBudding writers and poets of all levels of experience welcome! \nParticipation in Parsifal Unpacked is not prerequisite\, but you do need a working knowledge of the story to get the most out of these workshops. Here are some helpful resources.  \nReadings and resources \nParzival by Wolfram von Eschenbach\nPerceval le Gallois by Chrétien de Troyes\nParzival: An Introduction by Eileen Hutchins\nThe Camelot Project\, a digital library guide to people\, places and images\nParsifal the opera\, an online resources with background notes\nChrist and the spiritual world – the search for the Holy Grail\, GA 149\, a lecture by Rudolf Steiner \nWhen are they on? \nSaturday afternoon 3.30-5.30 pm ACST\nWebinar workshops: 17 September | 1 October | 15 October | 29 October | 12 November\nPoetry and Prose Reading: 26 November\, time to yet decided \nHow much does it cost?  \n$200 full workshop series or $160 for students (proof/documentation required) \nWhere do I register? \n You can register here \n \nFind out more … \nDownload the flyer and share!\nFind out more about The Parsifal Project here\nContact Artistic Director Jo-anne Sarre  \n  \nThis course is Stage 2 of The Parsifal Project\, a year-long multimedia community project. \n  \n“Don’t be satisfied with stories\, how things have gone with others. \nUnfold your own myth.”  Rumi \n  \n  \nAbout the facilitator \nFiona Campbell\, workshop facilitator and project creative consultant \nFiona Campbell is a visual artist\, researcher\, lecturer and arts educator.

SUMMARY:The great Luciferic/Ahrimanic face-off
DESCRIPTION: \n…and the tragedy of duality in our time\nThe 1st of 3 practice-based webinars exploring key challenges of 5th epoch\, 6th epoch and our cosmic future \nas represented in the ceiling motifs of the first Goetheanum \nPresenter: Fiona Campbell  \n  \n We are familiar with the figures of Lucifer and Ahriman as portrayed in Rudolf Steiner’s definitive sculpture\, the Representative of Humanity. There\, both beings are held in balance by the shining figure of the Christ Being. Yet in daily life\, it is the spectre of Ahriman that shadows us continually\, through our engagement with technologies that both ease and complicate everyday tasks. Lucifer seems to recede into the background of our consciousness as more an eternal archetype than a current concern\, a figure\, perhaps\, from the Biblical past. \n \nYet the motif of the Soul of our 5th Post-Atlantean epoch (left) shows both Lucifer and Ahriman irretrievably enmeshed\, and not held apart by Christ. So we can ask the question: do we really understand their interwoven relationship and its consequences for us in contemporary life? That where one being is\, the other is also always present? As a counterpart? \nRudolf Steiner describes this dual principle as an inescapable tragedy for the modern soul. So\, how can we grapple with this? In the motifs that filled the ceiling of the first Goetheanum\, we find some answers. \n  \nTell me more … \nThis is the first of three intensive\, practiced-based webinars that aim to deepen the work introduced in the Goetheanum Epoch Motifs series earlier this year. Questions about their relevance to today and how they could guide our future development emerged during this series. Let’s examine these questions further through immersing ourselves in the motifs.  \nThree webinars on the theme \nEach webinars revisit one of the three motifs that embody our present\, future and cosmic stage motifs of Steiner’s Goetheanum ceiling sketches. The three webinars concern:  \n\n\nThe great Lucifer and Ahriman face-off and the tragedy of duality in our time | The Germanic/Persian motif  | \nThe future of dualism: facing our shadow self | The Slavic motif |  \nThe correlation between the IAO motif and the Foundation Stone Meditation | The IAO motif | \n\n\nEach motif embodies a soul stage of human development – for the 5th epoch (current)\, the 6th epoch (future) and for our cosmic\, eternal image.  \nWe will explore these three motifs through their gestures\, meanings and role in our soul/spiritual evolution using lecture\, discussion\, contemplation and some drawing. \nWho are the webinars for? \nFor students of Anthroposophy\, Steiner teachers\, artists and anyone interested in understanding Steiner’s approach to the spiritual evolution of humanity. \nYou do not need to have attended the first Epochs series\, nor do you need drawing skills to enjoy these workshops: the focus is on the experiencing the content through doing\, not learning drawing techniques.  \nWhen are they on? \nSaturday afternoon 4.00-5.30pm AEST\nWebinar workshops: 24 September | 22 October | 26 November \nEach session will be recorded and will be available for registrants.\nDrawing materials list and background reading suggestions emailed at registration. \nHow much does it cost?  \nOnline series:  | $100 for 3 webinars | $40 per webinar | Concessions available – please contact Fiona. \nWhere do I enrol? \nEnrol here! \nThen download the payment details\, materials list and suggested readings. \n The Zoom link will be sent to you upon enrolment. You will be sent a reminder one hour before the webinar starts.  \nIf you lose your email with the link\, you will need to register again.  \nFor more information \nPlease contact Fiona Campbell  \n  \nAbout the presenter: Fiona Campbell PhD. is a researcher\, lecturer\, visual artist and arts educator. The nature of consciousness in our inner and outer development is one of her special interests\, a topic she has lectured and researched for 25 years. Her artistic research on the Goetheanum motifs complements this interest.  \nFiona is also a member of the Stream of Life Research Studio\, where she focuses on her other two specialisations\, phenomenology and creative cognition. \nYou can find out more about Fiona on her website\, read about her teaching work at Sydney Rudolf Steiner College or listen to a 2020 ABC Soul Search interview with her about the anthroposophical approach to art.  \nBackground notes \n2022 marks the centenary of the burning of the first Goetheanum on New Year’s Eve in 1922/23. As part of the 100th anniversary of the fire\, artists and members of the Anthroposophical Society around the world have been working with the forms and motifs of the 1st Goetheanum. These three webinars are part of this world-wide activity. \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 1st Goetheanum and 7 Sketches for the small cupola. These motifs map the spiritual history of humanity and were intended to support a training in karmic vision through Art. \n  \n  \n‘I must not ever leave you. \nYou will in future often find me at your side; \nI shall not go from you until you find \nthe power of that which you are to become.’  \n(The Soul’s Probation\, Scene 5) \n. \nPhoto credits: from The Language of Color in the First Goetheanum by Hilde Raske  \n

SUMMARY:Facing Our Shadow Self in the 6th Epoch
DESCRIPTION: \n| The Slavic Motif and Our Shadow Self | \nThe 2nd of 3 practice-based webinars exploring the tragedy of dualism \nin the  5th epoch\, 6th epoch and our cosmic future\nas represented in the ceiling motifs of the first Goetheanum \n  \n‘I must not ever leave you. \nYou will in future often find me at your side; \nI shall not go from you until you find \nthe power of that which you are to become.’  \n(The Soul’s Probation\, Scene 5) \n  \n  \nPresenter: Fiona Campbell  \nOur shadow self is usually seen as being our disowned self\, those aspects of our selves we don’t or won’t accept. This shadow is also a development of our innate dualistic nature. So\, how can we grapple with this? In the motifs that filled the ceiling of the first Goetheanum\, we find some answers. \nThis is the 2nd webinar in the The Great Luciferic/Ahrimanic face-off . But you don’t have to have attended previous webinars to enjoy the presentation and discussion.  \n  \nTell me more … \nWe use the motif (pictured above) representing the 6th epoch\, still far in our future\, to understand the nature of our double or shadow as a picture of dualism in our souls. \n\nWhat really is this shadow?  \nHow will we experience it?  \nDo all beings have a shadow\, even angels?  \nAnd how does this affect our future evolution and spiritual development?  \n\nWe explore these questions through study\, discussion\, contemplation and a little sketching of the motif.  \n\n  \nWho are the webinars for? \nFor anyone interested in Steiner’s approach to the spiritual evolution of humanity. \nYou do not need to have attended any previous webinars in this series nor do you need drawing skills to enjoy these workshops: the focus is on the experiencing the content through doing\, not learning drawing techniques.  \nWhen are they on? \nSaturday afternoon 4.00-5.30pm AEST\nWebinar workshops: 22 October | 26 November \nEach session will be recorded and a video of the event will be available post-webinar.\nA list of suggested drawing materials and background readings is also included in the cost.  \nHow much does it cost?  \nOnline series:  | $60 for 2 webinars | $35 per webinar | Concessions available on request – please contact Fiona.\nVideo recording included in the cost \nWhere do I book?  \nBook here! \nAfter booking\, I will send you a confirmation email containing the zoom link to join the meeting.  \nThen download the payment details\, materials list and suggested readings. \nFor more information \nPlease contact Fiona Campbell  \n\n  \nBackground notes \nWhat exactly is dualism?   \nThe term ‘dualism’ has various characterisations in different cultures and time periods. But in general\, it means there are two fundamental kinds or categories of things or principles. In theology\, for example\, a dualistic principle is Good and Evil or God and the Devil as independent yet equal forces in the world. Light and Darkness is another example of dualism common to most cultures. \nAccording to Rudolf Steiner\, dualism in our human evolution is expressed through two opposing yet interdependent entities called Lucifer and Ahriman. Both these names can be found in the Bible and in Zoroastrianism as mighty beings\, like fallen angels. But today they are experienced in our soul life as polar-opposite forces that we unconsciously swing between\, like a pendulum. The first webinar in this series\, The Great Luciferic/Ahrimanic Face-off\,  explored their influence in our daily lives in some depth. A video of this webinar is available on request.  \nThis webinar considers how this split might evolve into a separate shadow self.  \nAbout the first Goetheanum \n2022 marks the centenary of the burning of the first Goetheanum on New Year’s Eve in 1922/23. As part of the 100th anniversary of the fire\, artists and members of the Anthroposophical Society around the world have been working with the forms and motifs of the 1st Goetheanum. These three webinars are part of this world-wide activity. \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 1st Goetheanum and 7 Sketches for the small cupola. These motifs map the spiritual history of humanity and were intended to support a training in karmic vision through Art. \n. \nPhoto credits: from The Language of Color in the First Goetheanum by Hilde Raske  \n
