ARCHITECTURE AS A SYNTHESIS OF THE ART Relevant to students of architecture, the arts, social science, or anybody seeking deeper spiritual understanding, this collection of key lectures introduces Rudolf Steiner's unique vision of architecture as a synthesis or culmination of the arts. Such an architecture unites sculpture, painting and engraving as well as drama, music and dance - a vital synthesis of all the arts working in cooperation out of a common ideal to awaken each human being to his or her unique self and task in life. |

ART AS SEEN IN THE LIGHT OF MYSTERY WISDOM Within the Mystery cultures of ancient history, art, science and religion formed a unity that offered direction and spiritual nourishment to the broader society. Today, art, science and religion can again be reunited. However, as Marie Steiner indicates in her introduction to these lectures, these aspects of our culture need rejuvenation through fresh spiritual understanding and knowledge. Art cannot be renewed through compromise, but only by returning to the spiritual foundations of life. As she says: "The remedy lies in unlocking the wisdom of the Mysteries and presenting it to humanity in a form adapted to contemporary needs." |

ART AS SPIRITUAL ACTIVITY Rudolf Steiner's Contribution to the Visual Arts This book introduces a new way for thinking about, creating, and viewing art. Rudolf Steiner saw his task as the renewal of the lost unity of science, the arts and religion; thus he created a new, cognitive scientific and religious art. The implications of his act - recognized by such diverse artists as Wassily Kandinsky and Joseph Beuys - are only now coming fully to light. In his thorough introduction Michael Howard takes readers through these thought-provoking chapters. |

COLOUR Building on the achievements of Goethe in his Theory of Colour, Rudolf Steiner shows how colour affects us in many areas of life, including our health, our sense of well-being, and our feelings. Distinguishing between 'image' and 'lustre' colours, he lays the foundation, based on his spiritual-scientific research, for a practical technique of working with colour that leads to a new direction in artistic creativity. |

THE INDIVIDUALITY OF COLOUR Contributions to a Methodical Schooling in Colour Experience Foreword by S.O. Prokofieff Elisabeth Wagner-Koch Gerard Wagner 'What is postulated here is not the dogmatic laying down of a way of working. Rather the aim is to make evident one possible means of access to an experience of the colour world... and guide actual practice to Rudolf Steiner's sketch motifs - to their eminent educational power - for we recognize in them a path that can become of great significance to the developing human soul.' - From the Introduction |

THE INNER NATURE OF COLOR Studies on the Philosophy of the Four Elements J.L Benson In this fascinating work, J. Leonard Benson describes the spiritual and esoteric nature of color in relation to the four elements-fire, earth, air and water. Based on insights provided by Rudolf Steiner and a deep knowledge of classical cosmology and color theory, this book shows how an understanding of the inner nature of color leads to a completely different view of the world and evolution than is current in our present civilization - one completely at odds with the ruling neo-Darwinian paradigm. |
