Media & Mediums: Artists who Channel

The 2nd Annual Chicago Festival of Spiritual Art, opening reception May 28, 2010, 6 – 10 PM, the festival continues through September 6, 2010. Media and Mediums: Artists Who Channel will be presented as the Second Annual Chicago Festival of Spiritual Art at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N. Lincoln Avenue, Chicago.

This year’s festival is a summer-long exploration of the many ways contemporary artists understand their art as conduits for some greater energy than their personal energy or self. The festival includes visual and tactile art exhibits, performances, workshops, panel discussions, and other events to showcase the varied ways that artists, their art, and the spiritual dimension interact.

The show’s Opening Reception on Friday, May 28, from 6 – 10 pm will feature:

“Voice of Channeled Art” — Louise Cloutier will “sing” the artwork in the exhibit, making the visual art audible
Have a beautiful channeled artwork created especially for you — sessions with Beverly Stephan, ($55 for a session)
panel discussion with the artists: “What is channeled art?”
