The Platonic Solids These five Platonic solids are ideal, primal models of crystal patterns that occur throughout the world of minerals in countless variations. These are the only five regular polyhedra, that is, the only five solids made from the same equilateral, equiangular polygons. They are geometrical forms which are said to act as a template from which all life springs. The aesthetic beauty and symmetry of the Platonic solids have made them a favorite subject of geometers for thousands of years. They are named after the ancient Greek philosopher Plato who theorized that the classical elements were constructed from the regular solids. To the Greeks, these solids symbolized fire, earth, air, spirit (or ether) and water. The Platonic solids are also called "cosmic figures" and are the basic modules for Sacred Geometry. There will be more about Sacred Geometry soon. wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonic_solid © Copyright 2009 Michael Paukner. All Rights Reserved. Print Shop | Twitter | Facebook

Arrow Mary Soon Lee Late April, hills overrun with flowering azaleas-- pink, white, red, magenta-- the air bright with their scent, King Xau's mood dark as December. He galloped past his guards. Li, his captain, shouted, but Xau kept riding. He would spend this day, this one day as far away as possible from the relentless matchmakers and their wares: flirts, flatterers, coquettes, twelve-year-old girls with painted faces. An onslaught of replacement wives who couldn't replace Shazia. Air bright with the fragrance of flowers, his horse crested a hill, and there, below him, galloping on a gray horse, an archer: black hair beaded, braided, riding away from Xau, bow in hand. Xau halted as the rider arced round, black braid swinging as she-- demonstrably, conspicuously female, full breasts rounding her chest guard-- loosed an arrow. A hawk fell. Dead. One arrow, double duty. Xau as stricken as the hawk. Poet's Notes: This is part of The Sign of the Dragon, my epic fantasy in verse. It takes place nearly a year after the death of King Xau's first wife, Shazia. King Xau is still in his twenties and under pressure to make a politically advantageous second marriage. Xau almost always puts the good of his kingdom ahead of himself--but not this time. After seeing the woman in this poem, he pursues her even though she is by no means an appropriate choice.

He was born on April 6, 1917 in the town of Chorley, in Lancashire, England. In 1936 he entered the Ozenfant Academy of Art, in the city of London. The following year she met someone who indirectly introduced her to the surrealist movement: the German painter Max Ernst, whom he met again on a trip to Paris and with whom he soon established a sentimental relationship. During his stay in that city he came into contact with the Surrealist movement and lived with notable figures of the movement such as Joan Miró and André Breton, as well as with other painters who gathered around the table of Café Les Deux Magots, such as the painter Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dalí. In 1938 he wrote a short story called The House of Fear and participated with Max Ernst in the International Exhibition of Surrealism in Paris and Amsterdam. Prior to the Nazi occupation of France, several painters of the Surrealist movement, including Leonora Carrington, became active collaborators of the Freier Künstlerbund, an underground movement of anti-fascist intellectuals. Leonora Carrington was only 20 years old when she met Max Ernst in London. Then the painter was already 47 years old and quite famous as a surrealist. The great age difference, the fact that Ernst was also married, as well as his radical surrealist positions meant that this relationship did not count on the consent of Leonora's father. In spite of this, the couple was reunited in Paris and soon they went to live in the province, in the town of Saint-Martin-d'Ardèche, in a country house that they acquired in 1938. Until today it is conserved in the facade of this house is a relief that represents the couple and their role play: «Loplop», the alter ego of Max Ernst, a fabulous winged animal between bird and starfish and his «Bride of the Wind»: Leonora Carrington. The calm and happy life of the couple in this place lasted only one year. In September 1939 Max Ernst was declared an enemy of the Vichy regime. After the arrest and imprisonment of Ernst in the field of Les Milles, Leonora suffered a psychic destabilization. Before the inexorable Nazi invasion, she was forced to flee to Spain. Under the management of her father, she was admitted to a psychiatric hospital in Santander, and from this period the painter kept an indelible mark, which decisively affected her later work. Leonora described, in his autobiographical work (En bas) the details of this dramatic story. From this moment, André Breton became interested in hysteria, madness and other mental alterations and saw Leonora as a returning ambassador from the "other side", a seer, the witch who returned from the underworld armed with visionary powers. In 1941 he escaped from the hospital and arrived in the city of Lisbon, where he found refuge in the Mexican embassy. There he met the writer Renato Leduc, who helped her emigrate. That same year he married and Leonora traveled to New York. In 1942 he emigrated to Mexico and in 1943 he divorced Renato Leduc. In Mexico, the painter reestablished links with several of her Surrealist colleagues and friends in exile, who also met in that country, such as André Breton, Benjamin Péret, Alice Rahon, Wolfgang Paalen and the painter Remedios Varo, with whom she maintained a lasting friendship In the eighties, Leonora began to fuse bronze sculptures, her subjects refer to the multiple realities that confronts the reality of old age, and on the other hand Carrington had a genuine interest in alchemy and the fairy tales with which she grew up. that is perceived in his pictorial and sculptural work. She was the winner of the National Prize for Science and Arts in the Fine Arts area, awarded by the government of Mexico in 2005. He died at age 94 in Mexico City on May 25, 2011.
