Carl Jung is the best known 20th century champion for the transcendent studied self, superseding as he did Sigmund Freud's work on the subconscious with his own journeys into the collective unconscious and beyond. Jung was also a very spiritual artist. Here we see his 1914 painting from a dream which he felt predicted World War I, with the flaming crossed sun held apocalyptically by a mystical figure above a scene of cities, industry, and war technology. |

Jung also depicted his guide Philemon. After his 1913 break with Freud, Jung spent 6 years rigorously documenting his psyche, including the painting of his dreams and other mysteriously emergent imagery in his folio called the "Red Book". His guide for much of this time was the only-half imagined Philemon, the wise old man whose influence convinced Jung that "there are things in the psyche which I do not produce, but which produce themselves and have their own life." |
