About

We're on the cusp of a paradigm shift, a radical change in worldview that will thrust art and culture onto center stage. What does that mean? How will the world be different? What is the rising spirit of the times and how is it being expressed in art? Arlene Goldbard says, "I have this overwhelming image of energy gathering force and taking shape." She likens this force to a wave and says, "No one masterminds a wave, ordering all the drops of water into line. Many independent forces operate simultaneously — wind, gravity, disturbances of all kinds — and somehow, the wave mounts." In this dialogue we explore this mounting force and what's opposing this rolling tide. (hosted by Justine Willis Toms)
