Novalis
1772-1801 reloaded.
Romanticism
is rediscovered as modern criticism of our scientific system forming our consciousness
and development of spirit into separation and division. Novalis
[1772 - 1801] is the
one who's prophecy became truth: Men would lose their power to combine the varity
of colorful light among them through the splitting of spirit caused by dividing
the mental unity into objects which would increase the separation of men from
nature.

The
Novices of Sais -

It
may have taken a long time before men created the idea to give common
names to the mannifold objects of their senses and to take up an opposite
position to them. Through training developments are furthered, and in
all developments separations and divisions occur, which can be compared
comfortably with the splitting of a ray of light. So our inwardness was
splitting gradually into such mannifold forces, and with ongoing training
this splitting will increase. Perhaps it is only the sickly predisposition
of later men, when they will lose their ability to mix up again the scattered
colors of their spirit and to recreate the origin, simple, natural state,
or to bring about new mannifold relations among them.

Die
Lehrlinge zu Sais -

|
Es
mag lange gedauert haben, ehe die Menschen darauf dachten, die mannigfachen
Gegenstände ihrer Sinne mit einem gemeinschaftlichen Namen zu bezeichnen
und sich entgegen zu setzen. Durch Übung werden Entwickelungen
befördert, und in allen Entwickelungen gehen Teilungen, Zergliederungen
vor, die man bequem mit den Brechungen des Lichtstrahls vergleichen
kann. So hat sich auch nur allmählich unser Innres in so mannigfaltige
Kräfte zerspaltet, und mit fortdauernder Übung wird auch diese
Zerspaltung zunehmen. Vielleicht ist es nur krankhafte Anlage der späteren
Menschen, wenn sie das Vermögen verlieren, diese zerstreuten Farben
ihres Geistes wieder zu mischen und nach Belieben den alten einfachen
Naturstand herzustellen, oder neue, mannigfaltige Verbindungen unter
ihnen zu bewirken. |

When I started to meet the spirit of Novalis I felt an energetic Aura of a powerful tree which stayed in unity with the winds and the clouds of a wild sky. Within this imagination I painted The Tree of Dream 2. Fourteen days later I realized that one of the most famous German painters Caspar David Friedrich had been born into the Age of German Romanticism, following Novalis, who had seen the first light at Castle Oberwiederstedt (Sachsen-Anhalt) two years before. Obviously Friedrich's paintings reveal the same magic power of Nature in a mysterious timeframe of Fifty years where German Artists, Philosophers, Poets, Writers, Musicians, Pioneers and Discoverers met like rays of the sun: Immanuel Kant [1724-1804] Gotthold Ephraim Lessing [1729-1781] Johann Wolfgang von Goethe [1749-1832] Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart [1756-1791] Friedrich Schiller [1759-1805] August Wilhelm Schlegel [1767-1845] Wilhelm Freiherr von Humboldt [1767-1835] Alexander Freiherr von Humboldt [1769-1859] Ludwig
van Beethoven [1770-1827] Novalis
Friedrich Leopold Freiherr von Hardenberg
[1772-1801]
Caspar
David Friedrich [1774-1840].
