Springtime in America pt. II

Vile Love: A New Western Perversion

Chur boiz here at Rise of the Visigoths be doing some thangs; excuse our relative absence. We've been plotting a group art event under the wing of our friends, The Holland Project, the noble art and music organization here in Reno, Nevada.

Poet Joanne de Longchamps once compared the air and light of the Aegean Sea to Nevada’s ancient Pyramid Lake. Recognizing and exalting the geography of mythology, she was able to allow the wellspring of Western thought to seep through into her art and psyche that was firmly seated in the desert. Here on the crux of a disenchanting American dream, and unbound universal potential, Austin Pratt, Jaron Coxson, and Jake Graves seek to propagate a comprehensive mythology and aesthetic for swift modern currents.
Inspired by the desert geography and history, religious icons, empirical astrology, and cultural relics, we have assembled paintings and other visual expressions of magic to create an environment that will both honor novelty and exuberance and lament the rusted antecedent myths.

Here some info they've released about us..
Jaron Coxson, Jake Graves and Austin Pratt have pulled from worldwide folklore, contemporary commentary, conspiracy theory and pop culture to develop their aesthetics and attitude towards art-making. The work they have made and collected represents their directed efforts towards their own representations of our present, pressing up against the unknown future, while referencing a mythologized past.

Each artist has contributed recent works, including but not limited to: paintings, sculptures, found objects, collages, photographic prints, and other curiosities.

Oration On Tha Dignity of 23

A new form of human being announces itself: dynamic, creative, multidimensional, protean, unfinished, self-defining and self-creating, infinitely aspiring, set apart from the whole, overseeing the rest of the world with unique sovereignty, centrally poised in the last moments of the old cosmology to bring forth and enter into the new.
-from Tarnas' Cosmos and Psyche on twenty-three year old Pico della Mirandola's 1486 Oration on the Dignity of Man

"Neither a fixed abode nor a form that is thine alone nor any function peculiar to thyself have we given thee, Adam, to the end that according to thy longing and according to thy judgment thou mayest have and possess what abode, what form, and what functions thou thyself shalt desire. The nature of all other beings is limited and constrained within the bounds of laws prescribed by Us. Thou, constrained by no limits, in accordance with thine own free will, in whose hand We have placed thee, shalt ordain for thyself the limits of thy nature. We have set thee at the world's center that thou mayest from thence more easily observe whatever is in the world. We have made thee neither of heaven nor of earth, neither mortal nor immortal, so that with freedom of choice and with honor, as though the maker and molder of thyself, thou mayest fashion thyself in whatever shape thou shalt prefer."
