Parmenides' being and time Print

My creative work grounds in a profound connection to life, the organic space and the historicity of western art and civilization. As a philosophy teacher and researcher, I have explored the relationship to Nature that the western civilization has established since it's inception in classical art and philosophy, and try to think a new fundamental ontology, being able to re-open history after the postmodern. This research opened up my interest to the dialectic structure of art history, but also to the dynamics of narrative structures as present in myth, archetypal storytelling and film. I today propose seminars both for Art/ Architecture or film schools, trying to articulate narratives after post-modernity. Art/ Architectural and Arch' narratives that, though integrating the modern, take us back to pre- classical Ontologies of Nature and storytelling (cf. for example the Stonehenge/ Woodhenge ontology of Matter - life/ The Biblical narratives taken from a humanistic/ mythical perspective). Art/ Aesthetics, beyond a simple Window, opened on the world (Cf. Alberti), become a Doorway, restoring and revitalizing our shared symbolic experiences. Art/ Architecture/Narrative as a symbolic form, reawakening a common "Lebenswelt" (Lifeworld), from a new felt sense of past and future.
