SUMMARY:Exhibition:  Paintings by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents “The Only Person in the Vast World! Practice Accessing Vital Source Through Art\,” an exhibition of acrylic paintings on burlap by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida that explores the relationship between materials and between materials and artist. The exhibition will be on view from December 4\, 2017 – February 6\, 2018. \nThink of the painted object dancing. In this art series the painting and the burlap are dancing together as one object in space. The painting and the burlap exist in a symbiotic relationship with each other. Without both together the art would not exist. The confluence of energy\, like the Dance of Shiva\, is the cause of creation. A reciprocity exists between the materials\, textures\, colors\, paint and media used in this series. One might say this of the materials of any art works; here\, the artist asks us to focus on it and enter into relationship with the energies of the materials. We might feel some life force in the materials\, some sense of their participation in the creation\, of their volition even\, and of the artist’s gratitude. We might feel as if the artist is collaborating with the materials\, and that we\, by meditating on this\, join in the relationship. \nMaterials: Burlap\, Acrylic paint marker\, Acrylic \nArtist Statment: \n“Art de Genki” is the name I have given to my art. It means Art through Vital Energy. My approach to art changed after moving to New York City and working full time as a gardener. Previously I was a full time artist working inside a studio. Now I am a part time artist. As a gardener in Battery Park City Parks\, I work outside in all seasons and in all weather conditions. Since 2006\, from April through October on weekends and holidays I create chalk drawings in the park. This is one of my major forms of Art. The park itself has become my studio and the pavement is my canvas. \nI am very aware of Nature all around me:  sky\, river\, clouds\, trees\, plants\, flowers\, animals\, and many people. I sense the energy of the world around me. \nWhile creating my drawings in public I feel that I am also a performance artist as people are watching my creative process. I am also observing myself drawing. Yet while I am drawing I am not so much aware of the chalk\, the pavement or the movement of my hands. More deeply\, I am open to the Vital Energy flowing through me and around me. I am practicing deeply and delivering my energy over my art. Art has become my Spiritual Practice. \nBIO: \nYoukee was born in Kyoto\, Japan. After receiving a law degree from Kwansei Gakuin University\, he decided to pursue his true passion – art – which brought him to the United States. He has completed MFA programs in printmaking and lithography at the Otis Art Institute and Cranbrook Academy of Art\, and currently lives in New York. \nHis solo shows over the past 20 years have included exhibitions at the following venues: \n\n2004 Gallery MOMO in Tokyo\, Japan\n2004 Osaka Sogo Design School in Osaka\, Japan\n1999 Maruka Moko Show Room in Hiroshima\, Japan\n1998 Osaka Contemporary Art Center in Osaka\, Japan\n1998 Pinpoint Art Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1997 Kumamoto Pref. Art Museum in Kumamoto\, Japan\n1997 Osaka Contemporary Art Center in Osaka\, Japan\n1996 LA FONTE Gallery in Utsunomiya\, Tochigi\, Japan\n1994 OJAI Center For The Arts\, Ojai\, Calif.\n1991 Dentsu AD Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1990 HALS Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1990 TOSO Show Room in Tokyo\, Japan\n1986 ARTSPACE INC. Gallery in Los Angeles\, Calif.\n1986 MM SHINO Gallery in Los Angeles\, Calif.\n1984 ATHEN Gallery in Tokyo in Japan\n1984 ATHEN Gallery in Tokyo in Japan\n\nHe is often found creating art at Battery Park City Park on sunny days. \nYoukee’s complete resume can be read at CRS. His “soul profile” is below: \nWhen I was a student on the way home from my part time job one day\, I felt I would be a person to be alone with myself looking up over the sky! What did I mean by that? I just let it go without thinking deeper for a long time. After graduating from college\, I started studying art in Los Angeles. Then I moved to New York. As a street artist here after releasing myself from a limited studio to the open space in the park\, the Sun\, Wind\, Rain\, trees\, flowers\, birds\, all other nature\, including wild animals\, tourists\, walkers\, joggers\, in all other people and nature\, I continue drawing my paintings there patiently…. noticing and observing myself alone in such an environment…. \nAlas……this is “The Only person (being myself\, without anyone nor family) in the vast world!”\nNow I understood. \nBeing myself and being in the present moment by observing everything around me and my soul…from this comes oneness with the universe\, nothing needed! Just Be! \nhttp://www.artdegenki.com

SUMMARY:Exhibition:  Paintings by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents “The Only Person in the Vast World! Practice Accessing Vital Source Through Art\,” an exhibition of acrylic paintings on burlap by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida that explores the relationship between materials and between materials and artist. The exhibition will be on view from December 4\, 2017 – February 6\, 2018. \nThink of the painted object dancing. In this art series the painting and the burlap are dancing together as one object in space. The painting and the burlap exist in a symbiotic relationship with each other. Without both together the art would not exist. The confluence of energy\, like the Dance of Shiva\, is the cause of creation. A reciprocity exists between the materials\, textures\, colors\, paint and media used in this series. One might say this of the materials of any art works; here\, the artist asks us to focus on it and enter into relationship with the energies of the materials. We might feel some life force in the materials\, some sense of their participation in the creation\, of their volition even\, and of the artist’s gratitude. We might feel as if the artist is collaborating with the materials\, and that we\, by meditating on this\, join in the relationship. \nMaterials: Burlap\, Acrylic paint marker\, Acrylic \nArtist Statment: \n“Art de Genki” is the name I have given to my art. It means Art through Vital Energy. My approach to art changed after moving to New York City and working full time as a gardener. Previously I was a full time artist working inside a studio. Now I am a part time artist. As a gardener in Battery Park City Parks\, I work outside in all seasons and in all weather conditions. Since 2006\, from April through October on weekends and holidays I create chalk drawings in the park. This is one of my major forms of Art. The park itself has become my studio and the pavement is my canvas. \nI am very aware of Nature all around me:  sky\, river\, clouds\, trees\, plants\, flowers\, animals\, and many people. I sense the energy of the world around me. \nWhile creating my drawings in public I feel that I am also a performance artist as people are watching my creative process. I am also observing myself drawing. Yet while I am drawing I am not so much aware of the chalk\, the pavement or the movement of my hands. More deeply\, I am open to the Vital Energy flowing through me and around me. I am practicing deeply and delivering my energy over my art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:  Paintings by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents “The Only Person in the Vast World! Practice Accessing Vital Source Through Art\,” an exhibition of acrylic paintings on burlap by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida that explores the relationship between materials and between materials and artist. The exhibition will be on view from December 4\, 2017 – February 6\, 2018. \nThink of the painted object dancing. In this art series the painting and the burlap are dancing together as one object in space. The painting and the burlap exist in a symbiotic relationship with each other. Without both together the art would not exist. The confluence of energy\, like the Dance of Shiva\, is the cause of creation. A reciprocity exists between the materials\, textures\, colors\, paint and media used in this series. One might say this of the materials of any art works; here\, the artist asks us to focus on it and enter into relationship with the energies of the materials. We might feel some life force in the materials\, some sense of their participation in the creation\, of their volition even\, and of the artist’s gratitude. We might feel as if the artist is collaborating with the materials\, and that we\, by meditating on this\, join in the relationship. \nMaterials: Burlap\, Acrylic paint marker\, Acrylic \nArtist Statment: \n“Art de Genki” is the name I have given to my art. It means Art through Vital Energy. My approach to art changed after moving to New York City and working full time as a gardener. Previously I was a full time artist working inside a studio. Now I am a part time artist. As a gardener in Battery Park City Parks\, I work outside in all seasons and in all weather conditions. Since 2006\, from April through October on weekends and holidays I create chalk drawings in the park. This is one of my major forms of Art. The park itself has become my studio and the pavement is my canvas. \nI am very aware of Nature all around me:  sky\, river\, clouds\, trees\, plants\, flowers\, animals\, and many people. I sense the energy of the world around me. \nWhile creating my drawings in public I feel that I am also a performance artist as people are watching my creative process. I am also observing myself drawing. Yet while I am drawing I am not so much aware of the chalk\, the pavement or the movement of my hands. More deeply\, I am open to the Vital Energy flowing through me and around me. I am practicing deeply and delivering my energy over my art. Art has become my Spiritual Practice. \nBIO: \nYoukee was born in Kyoto\, Japan. After receiving a law degree from Kwansei Gakuin University\, he decided to pursue his true passion – art – which brought him to the United States. He has completed MFA programs in printmaking and lithography at the Otis Art Institute and Cranbrook Academy of Art\, and currently lives in New York. \nHis solo shows over the past 20 years have included exhibitions at the following venues: \n\n2004 Gallery MOMO in Tokyo\, Japan\n2004 Osaka Sogo Design School in Osaka\, Japan\n1999 Maruka Moko Show Room in Hiroshima\, Japan\n1998 Osaka Contemporary Art Center in Osaka\, Japan\n1998 Pinpoint Art Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1997 Kumamoto Pref. Art Museum in Kumamoto\, Japan\n1997 Osaka Contemporary Art Center in Osaka\, Japan\n1996 LA FONTE Gallery in Utsunomiya\, Tochigi\, Japan\n1994 OJAI Center For The Arts\, Ojai\, Calif.\n1991 Dentsu AD Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1990 HALS Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1990 TOSO Show Room in Tokyo\, Japan\n1986 ARTSPACE INC. Gallery in Los Angeles\, Calif.\n1986 MM SHINO Gallery in Los Angeles\, Calif.\n1984 ATHEN Gallery in Tokyo in Japan\n1984 ATHEN Gallery in Tokyo in Japan\n\nHe is often found creating art at Battery Park City Park on sunny days. \nYoukee’s complete resume can be read at CRS. His “soul profile” is below: \nWhen I was a student on the way home from my part time job one day\, I felt I would be a person to be alone with myself looking up over the sky! What did I mean by that? I just let it go without thinking deeper for a long time. After graduating from college\, I started studying art in Los Angeles. Then I moved to New York. As a street artist here after releasing myself from a limited studio to the open space in the park\, the Sun\, Wind\, Rain\, trees\, flowers\, birds\, all other nature\, including wild animals\, tourists\, walkers\, joggers\, in all other people and nature\, I continue drawing my paintings there patiently…. noticing and observing myself alone in such an environment…. \nAlas……this is “The Only person (being myself\, without anyone nor family) in the vast world!”\nNow I understood. \nBeing myself and being in the present moment by observing everything around me and my soul…from this comes oneness with the universe\, nothing needed! Just Be! \nhttp://www.artdegenki.com

SUMMARY:Exhibition:  Paintings by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents “The Only Person in the Vast World! Practice Accessing Vital Source Through Art\,” an exhibition of acrylic paintings on burlap by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida that explores the relationship between materials and between materials and artist. The exhibition will be on view from December 4\, 2017 – February 6\, 2018. \nThink of the painted object dancing. In this art series the painting and the burlap are dancing together as one object in space. The painting and the burlap exist in a symbiotic relationship with each other. Without both together the art would not exist. The confluence of energy\, like the Dance of Shiva\, is the cause of creation. A reciprocity exists between the materials\, textures\, colors\, paint and media used in this series. One might say this of the materials of any art works; here\, the artist asks us to focus on it and enter into relationship with the energies of the materials. We might feel some life force in the materials\, some sense of their participation in the creation\, of their volition even\, and of the artist’s gratitude. We might feel as if the artist is collaborating with the materials\, and that we\, by meditating on this\, join in the relationship. \nMaterials: Burlap\, Acrylic paint marker\, Acrylic \nArtist Statment: \n“Art de Genki” is the name I have given to my art. It means Art through Vital Energy. My approach to art changed after moving to New York City and working full time as a gardener. Previously I was a full time artist working inside a studio. Now I am a part time artist. As a gardener in Battery Park City Parks\, I work outside in all seasons and in all weather conditions. Since 2006\, from April through October on weekends and holidays I create chalk drawings in the park. This is one of my major forms of Art. The park itself has become my studio and the pavement is my canvas. \nI am very aware of Nature all around me:  sky\, river\, clouds\, trees\, plants\, flowers\, animals\, and many people. I sense the energy of the world around me. \nWhile creating my drawings in public I feel that I am also a performance artist as people are watching my creative process. I am also observing myself drawing. Yet while I am drawing I am not so much aware of the chalk\, the pavement or the movement of my hands. More deeply\, I am open to the Vital Energy flowing through me and around me. I am practicing deeply and delivering my energy over my art. Art has become my Spiritual Practice. \nBIO: \nYoukee was born in Kyoto\, Japan. After receiving a law degree from Kwansei Gakuin University\, he decided to pursue his true passion – art – which brought him to the United States. He has completed MFA programs in printmaking and lithography at the Otis Art Institute and Cranbrook Academy of Art\, and currently lives in New York. \nHis solo shows over the past 20 years have included exhibitions at the following venues: \n\n2004 Gallery MOMO in Tokyo\, Japan\n2004 Osaka Sogo Design School in Osaka\, Japan\n1999 Maruka Moko Show Room in Hiroshima\, Japan\n1998 Osaka Contemporary Art Center in Osaka\, Japan\n1998 Pinpoint Art Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1997 Kumamoto Pref.

I am also observing myself drawing. Yet while I am drawing I am not so much aware of the chalk\, the pavement or the movement of my hands. More deeply\, I am open to the Vital Energy flowing through me and around me. I am practicing deeply and delivering my energy over my art. Art has become my Spiritual Practice. \nBIO: \nYoukee was born in Kyoto\, Japan.

SUMMARY:Prayer for Amara: Sound Meditation + Whirling
DESCRIPTION:Dear friends of CRS and the Williams family\, \nCRS invites you to join us for our monthly sound and movement meditation. We gather to remember the divine strength within ourselves and to support the family of Kenji and Sayoko Williams’ five-year-old daughter\, Amara\, who is growing up with a brain tumor and all the challenges that presents. Our minds will join with Amara’s prayer circle of hundreds of people around the world. \nFollowing a crystal singing bowl meditation (CRS healer Miyoko Satoh) and prayer circle (CRS Founder Yasuko Kasaki)\, we’ll whirl together with live percussion by Saco Yasuma\, Senko Nishimura\, and friends. Whirling is a devotional dance practice that Amara’s mother\, performing artist Lale Sayoko\, has been exploring as a way of uniting her dance practice with her prayers for her daughter. No experience is necessary. \nThe participation fee is $20 with advanced registration and $25 on Jan 21. 50% of the proceeds go to the Williams family. \nThrough whirling\, we learn to trust ourselves to go off balance\, to be dizzy\, to surrender control as we give ourselves over to prayer and connect with a greater power\, the still center within\, around which we turn\, that we may share our divine strength and bear witness to the divinity in others. \nIf you are quiet and in a state of prayer when you Turn\, offering everything of yourself to God\, then when your body is spinning\, there is a completely still point in the center… The heavens respond; and all the invisible kingdoms join in the dance. But the world does not understand. They think we Turn in order to go into some sort of trance. It is true that sometimes we do go into that state you call ecstasy\, but that is only when we know and experience at the same time. We do not Turn for ourselves. We turn around in the way we do so that the Light of God may descend upon the earth. As you act as a conduit in the Turn\, the light comes through the right hand\, and the left hand brings it into this world… We turn for God and for the world\, and it is the most beautiful thing you can imagine. — Mevlevi Shaikh Suleyman Hyatt Dede \nAbout Lale Sayoko \nLale was one of the founding members of Japan’s famous Samanyolu professional bellydance group\, and has since developed her own solo career touring with UK’s Mugenkyo Taiko Drummers on a 44 city tour of the UK\, to Turkey’s Baba Zula\, to New York’s Bella Gaia multimedia Earth from Space journey show. Appearing in Japanese and American magazines and newspapers\, Lale aspires for dance to be a powerful communicator though traditional technique and spiritual embodiment. She has lately been studying Sufi dance with Rana Gorgani.\nhttp://www.lalesayoko.com

SUMMARY:Exhibition:  Paintings by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents “The Only Person in the Vast World! Practice Accessing Vital Source Through Art\,” an exhibition of acrylic paintings on burlap by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida that explores the relationship between materials and between materials and artist. The exhibition will be on view from December 4\, 2017 – February 6\, 2018. \nThink of the painted object dancing. In this art series the painting and the burlap are dancing together as one object in space. The painting and the burlap exist in a symbiotic relationship with each other. Without both together the art would not exist. The confluence of energy\, like the Dance of Shiva\, is the cause of creation. A reciprocity exists between the materials\, textures\, colors\, paint and media used in this series. One might say this of the materials of any art works; here\, the artist asks us to focus on it and enter into relationship with the energies of the materials. We might feel some life force in the materials\, some sense of their participation in the creation\, of their volition even\, and of the artist’s gratitude. We might feel as if the artist is collaborating with the materials\, and that we\, by meditating on this\, join in the relationship. \nMaterials: Burlap\, Acrylic paint marker\, Acrylic \nArtist Statment: \n“Art de Genki” is the name I have given to my art. It means Art through Vital Energy. My approach to art changed after moving to New York City and working full time as a gardener. Previously I was a full time artist working inside a studio. Now I am a part time artist. As a gardener in Battery Park City Parks\, I work outside in all seasons and in all weather conditions. Since 2006\, from April through October on weekends and holidays I create chalk drawings in the park. This is one of my major forms of Art. The park itself has become my studio and the pavement is my canvas. \nI am very aware of Nature all around me:  sky\, river\, clouds\, trees\, plants\, flowers\, animals\, and many people. I sense the energy of the world around me. \nWhile creating my drawings in public I feel that I am also a performance artist as people are watching my creative process. I am also observing myself drawing. Yet while I am drawing I am not so much aware of the chalk\, the pavement or the movement of my hands. More deeply\, I am open to the Vital Energy flowing through me and around me. I am practicing deeply and delivering my energy over my art. Art has become my Spiritual Practice. \nBIO: \nYoukee was born in Kyoto\, Japan. After receiving a law degree from Kwansei Gakuin University\, he decided to pursue his true passion – art – which brought him to the United States. He has completed MFA programs in printmaking and lithography at the Otis Art Institute and Cranbrook Academy of Art\, and currently lives in New York. \nHis solo shows over the past 20 years have included exhibitions at the following venues: \n\n2004 Gallery MOMO in Tokyo\, Japan\n2004 Osaka Sogo Design School in Osaka\, Japan\n1999 Maruka Moko Show Room in Hiroshima\, Japan\n1998 Osaka Contemporary Art Center in Osaka\, Japan\n1998 Pinpoint Art Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1997 Kumamoto Pref.

Gallery in Los Angeles\, Calif.\n1986 MM SHINO Gallery in Los Angeles\, Calif.\n1984 ATHEN Gallery in Tokyo in Japan\n1984 ATHEN Gallery in Tokyo in Japan\n\nHe is often found creating art at Battery Park City Park on sunny days. \nYoukee’s complete resume can be read at CRS. His “soul profile” is below: \nWhen I was a student on the way home from my part time job one day\, I felt I would be a person to be alone with myself looking up over the sky! What did I mean by that? I just let it go without thinking deeper for a long time. After graduating from college\, I started studying art in Los Angeles. Then I moved to New York. As a street artist here after releasing myself from a limited studio to the open space in the park\, the Sun\, Wind\, Rain\, trees\, flowers\, birds\, all other nature\, including wild animals\, tourists\, walkers\, joggers\, in all other people and nature\, I continue drawing my paintings there patiently…. noticing and observing myself alone in such an environment…. \nAlas……this is “The Only person (being myself\, without anyone nor family) in the vast world!”\nNow I understood. \nBeing myself and being in the present moment by observing everything around me and my soul…from this comes oneness with the universe\, nothing needed!
