Read Cards Like a Surrealist: A Practical and Creative Tarot Exploration With Laetitia Barbier
In the PRS Library!
Welcome to the Surrealist Tarot Parlor! A new Tarot class with Laetitia Barbier exploring the surrealist gaze, image-making and legacy applied to contemporary Tarot practice. The surrealist Tarot parlor is a cozy, experimental laboratory, a place of poetic foreplay in which we’ll be able to informally indulge in magical iconographical explorations, through games and artful activities.
From its early beginning in the 1920s, the Surrealist movement championed artistic exploration through methods such as free association, automatic writing and exquisite corpses - collective drawing or texts made without knowing the others’ contribution. Inspired by Psychoanalysis, the surrealists used playfulness, group exercises and the quest for liminal states to subvert their own predictability and free themselves from the constraints of the rational mind. Surprise, accident, and reveries brought to the surface the inarticulate visions of the subconscious and unlocked the doors of creation.
In the same way, Tarot as an intuitive and introspective practice forces us to reconcile with our own imagination, to contemplate what’s hidden within us, and use it as 
materia prima
 to reinvent our own narrative. In this class, we’ll behave like Surrealism resurrectionists, unearthing the avant-garde group’s creative methodology, unapologetically applying it to Tarot tradition and seeing what chance encounters we reveal. After engaging in tarot practice, students will be invited to create their own tarot card using collage and surrealist creative techniques.

好吧，這真是擁擠的一天。很多學校團體。另外，當我們到達時，下一張可用票的時間是 2 小時後。我們每人花了18美元，另外還有停車費15美元。我認為這次體驗非常好。這些事情我很感興趣，所以我根本不介意等待。但它確實變得擁擠。

日落大道

Tn Around

日落大道是洛杉磯最具代表性的事物之一，但它最終只是一條路。毫無疑問，它涵蓋了一些亮點，例如花花公子大廈、奧本海姆集團直通好萊塢，但你最終只是路過而不是冒險去。
