Philosophy/Mission/Vision
“To redefine the notion of art towards a higher aim, that is to show the different levels of reality (the physical(concrete, objective,natural, sensibilia), mental(subjective, fantastic, surreal, psychological, intelligibilia), spiritual (transcendental, visionary, mystical, transcendelia) “beyond” post decadent modern art, and to re-unite autonomous artists into one collective, one artistic culture that challenge tradition and move towards the future.”
Objectives:We stand for
1.) The Individual and Universal right to express
2.) The right of the artist to be involved and recognized in the global scene respective of the subject/object of their art contra-imperialist, capitalist politics.
3.) The never-ending quest of humanity towards a meaningful world, the untainted, unfettered, utopia where art is a prime mover for change towards a brighter future.
4.) The universal artistic fraternity, a brotherhood and sisterhood of artists united into one common goal.
Theme
Periscope
By definition: Of the word periscope (periskopein, to observe around): n. A periscope is an apparatus consisting of a tube attached to a set of mirrors or prisms, by which an observer (typically in a submerged submarine or behind a high obstacle) can see things that are otherwise out of sight.
To see things that is otherwise out of site. that is the point over which why the term delineates our common aims...the term surrealism is already a defunct and decadent movement, though as inheritors of this glorious movement we are not "surrealists" in context because we cannot create the same surreal image that the original group conceived...We are not surrealists, abstract expressionists, nor visionary artists but we look upon these past movements as our starting point towards a more higher aim, to look and see things(in our physical, mental, and spiritual selves) that are out of sight(knowledge, knowingness, revelation in relation to the current culture)...A periscope can see from below and beyond...yet it always brings out the best view unreachable by the unaided eye, as periscopic artists it is out duty to be the periscopes of post decadent modern art...we are no longer confined, we will reinterpret the meaning of art in a periscopic way!! A new revolution...A new definition, which is the very purpose of the Exhibit."Artist Organizing Committee
