This wonderful dramatic presentation of Aesthetic Realism will bring clarity and thrill you. It will feature:
Mind & Memory by Eli Siegel, in which he said:
“Every time we remember something, we have been saying, ‘You and I, World, have got along, because things in you are now part of me.’ Memory happens to be the residuum of a friendship still going on.”
And there will be “So, What’s Amiss?”
A Reenactment of an Aesthetic Realism Lesson, which includes Eli Siegel:
“To this matter of how much the outside world should get into us, the answer of Aesthetic Realism is: As much as possible. Wouldn’t a person reading a book like every page to mean something?”
And also, you will hear:
“Palladio’s Villa Rotunda & What I Learned about Love!”
By architect Anthony Romeo
“Villa Rotunda faces the world on four sides, never turning its back on the surrounding countryside….One of the biggest things I learned from Aesthetic Realism is that we want to feel that our most intimate moments are also wide, that when we are alone with the person we care for, the beautiful diversity of the world is honored.”
Contribution $10.
