Stephen Ellcock Knihy

Over 250 powerful, profound and playful images to help us through our daily lives, selected by internationally renowned Facebook curator Stephen Ellcock.

In 'The Cosmic Dance', renowned image alchemist Stephen Ellcock presents a pan-global collection of remarkable, arresting and surprising images drawn from the entire history of art to explore the ancient belief that the cosmos is reflected in all living things. Organized thematically, the visual journey begins with the microscopic, the particulate and the elemental; then explores the human body as a cosmos in miniature, the beauty of divine proportions and our search for spiritual enlightenment; before finally revelling in the colossal, the celestial and the infinite. An eloquent introduction provides an overview of the central themes and expert commentaries introduce each section. Detailed panels provide bitesize information on key concepts and key thinkers - from the four elements to Cosmic Man and from the moebius strip to the Mandelbrot set - while thought-provoking quotations from philosophers, writers, artists and scientists interspersed throughout the artworks prompt a closer, more personal engagement with the images. This stunning treasury of artworks provides the perfect guide to a deeper contemplation of the world around us, allowing readers, in the words of William Blake, to 'see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour'

Créateur d'un musée virtuel en constante expansion sur les réseaux sociaux, Stephen Ellcock s'est fait connaître pour sa capacité remarquable à agencer les iconographies, donnant vie à des harmonies inattendues et à des correspondances qui créent la surprise et l'émotion. Avec La Danse cosmique, l'auteur entraîne le lecteur dans une odyssée visuelle allant du minuscule à l'infini, sillonnant les cinq continents, traversant les civilisations et les âges. Il nous fait progresser dans ce foisonnement d'images mêlant illustrations naturalistes, planches anatomiques, représentations du nirvana, symboles de la géométrie sacrée et cartographies du cosmos. Stephen Ellcock montre ainsi comment les croyances ancestrales liées au divin influencent la façon dont l'homme se représente et se situe au sein de l'univers.
