“New Imaginism – breakthrough new art form to be launched
in 2009”
Six
international artists
have come together from around the world, to
announce the upcoming unveiling of a new art form and philosophy called
New Imaginism.
The artists;
Professor Herman Bean,
Colin Colorful, Alice Dee, Ewan Me,
Xochi
Xo
and XOX
have all contributed to the New Imaginist manifesto and
have contributed works for the formal launch expected to happen in October.
The VIP American and European New Imaginism “initiations” will take place at
high profile venues in New York and London.
These unique events will only be available to a small elite of “founder patrons”
who are currently being selected from the top 500 private collectors, gallerists
and cognoscenti of the art world, according to Professor Bean.
The selection of founder patrons is based on their contribution to
contemporary art vision and not simply on the size of their current collections
or standing. “There is often scepticism of the New...” says Bean “but founder
patrons are often also art visionaries... they are
the ones most likely to adopt
this new way of seeing, because they just get it.”
Following this, the New Imaginism “member initiations” will take place in other
major world art cities during a tour by the artists,
running concurrently with
New Imaginism is post-conceptual and post-digital, it is art from the future. As
far as the New Imaginist artists are concerned, it
will be the opening of the
next frontier for artistic exploration and is the natural consequence of the
historical movement of art forms from external to internal, from craft to
concept, object to subject, and now beyond into the source of pure creativity
between minds.
“New Imaginism is an extremely personal, intimate fine art form that will be as
confronting to many of today’s cognoscenti, as Dadaism was to the same in
the early 20th century. However, once people just “get it”, they will have a
completely new way of seeing” says Colin Colorful.
From the scale and ambition of the undertaking, the New Imaginists are
assumed to be very successful artists that have
taken on pseudonyms, so as
not to confuse their past achievements, with their new art form.
