elliot wolfson<\/b>\u00a0<\/span>has long been preoccupied with the insights of jewish mystical traditions that approach an imageless god through the mediation of an intensely visual symbolic imaginary. his painted canvases communicate a corresponding sense that vision hovers ever on the borders of appearing and disappearing, disclosure and hiddenness. as the imagination seeks to give form to what remains nonetheless formless, the quintessentially human endeavor of hermeneutics is already caught up in the transcending eros of a divine creativity.<\/p>\n

flowering light: kabbalistic mysticism and the art of elliot r. wolfson\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

marcia brennan, rice university<\/span><\/h4>\n

the book examines wolfson\u2019s scholarship, poetry and painting as a single, integrated body of work.\u00a0\u201ci\u2019ve been looking at paintings for 20 years, and this painting was most extraordinary,\u201d brennan said. \u201cwhen you put it all together, elliot wolfson\u2019s work is far more than a painting, a poem or a text. it is a complex aesthetic experience.<\/span><\/p>\n

marcia brennan\u2019s training and expertise in the history of modern art gives her a very specific and very apt position from which to view the reflections and refractions of the scholarship, the poetry and the paintings of elliot wolfson,\u201d kripal said. \u201cthe cartesian subject, and with it the search for pure objectivity, is abandoned here for a much richer, and much more mysterious, postmodern self and accompanying epistemology that come to be (and to not be) through elaborate processes of mirroring, reflection and refraction \u2014 in effect, a mystical language of dancing, flowering light.<\/span><\/p>\n
