Austin Osman Spare ... The Formula of Atavistic Resurgence...
~ Austin Osman Spare ~
30 December 1886 – 15 May 1956
The Formula of Atavistic Resurgence
Zos-Kia Cultus
Zos-Kia Cultus
Austin Osman Spare created this Stele embodying the secret glyphs and sigils of the Cultus.
"There is a Grimoire of symbology, of vague phonic nuances that conjoins all thoughts and is the cryptic language of the subconscious world." AOS
"I teach the equal reality of all things, man and his illusions: Dreams shall flesh ...some day." AOS
Whatever the value of Spare’s contribution to art and psychology, his contribution to experimental occultism is supreme, for he discovered a method of reifying the dream world under the controlling aegis of the fully conscious will.

Hans Bellmer...print.... undated
“The body resembles a sentence that seems to invite us to dismantle it into its component letters, so that its true meanings may be revealed anew through an endless stream of anagrams.”
Hans Bellmer

André Pieyre de Mandiargues on Bellmer...
“He was highly intelligent and seemed to have no sense of culpability or sin—there was innocence in his perversity. His eroticism was intellectual rather than sensual, cold rather than hot: this attracted me to him because like me, he was basically a puritan, and like me, he had no time for vulgar sensuality.”
