Edward Bulwer Lytton: Vril: The Power of the Coming Race Illustrations by Christine Ödlund. Introduction by Carl AbrahamssonSir Edward Bulwer Lytton’s cautionary tale of occult super-powers and advanced subterranean cultures have fascinated readers since 1871. Part early science-fiction, part educational tract, part occult romance, Vril keeps spellbinding readers thanks to its wide range of themes and emotions, as well as its thrilling sense of adventure. A curious man descends into a mountain through a mine and experiences far more than he bargained for. Deep inside the mountain lies a completely different world. Its inhabitants, the Vril-ya, are human-like but physically superior and philosophically more advanced. They live in harmony made possible by their wisdom but also by the powerful and potentially destructive magical energy: Vril. The impressed yet terrified visitor is allowed to stay and learn more about their ancient and advanced culture, something very few visitors have–it seems that all the previous adventurers have been mercilessly disposed of by the Vril-ya.

DISCUSSION: Art and the Esoteric
A discussion focusing on art's intersection with the occult and esoteric traditions, taking as a starting point the work of current artist in residence Fredrik Söderberg. During his residency Söderberg's research focuses on the renowned early 20th Century occultist Aleister Crowley, his practice as an artist and his enduring influence. The discussion is chaired by artist and author Carl Abrahamsson who has studied Crowley's philosophy as well as the junction of art and mysticism. Further guests to be announced. The event will also mark the launch of Aleister Crowley's republished book “White Stains”, featuring illustrations by Fredrik Söderberg.

Edited and with an introduction by William Breeze. Illustrated by Fredrik Söderberg.
English poet-magician Aleister Crowley published White Stains in 1898, an era of intense creativity for the budding magus-to-be. The original edition of a mere 100 copies was printed in Amsterdam with the help of Leonard Smithers (publisher of Beardsley, Wilde, Burton et al). Part of the edition was later “appropriated” and destroyed by English Customs officers, due to the erotic nature of the poems. In a Victorian Zeitgeist that found Oscar Wilde intensely shocking, Aleister Crowley of course took everything one step further. The virile sexual force stemming from Crowley’s pen is but one of his trademark traits here. In this early collection, we also find examples of his remarkable wit, a thorough understanding of psycho-sexual dynamics, bombastic expressions of lyrical love, as well as his beloved Swinburnean structures of classical poetry. White Stains really is Crowley at his youthful best.
This edition contains six stunning watercolour paintings by Fredrik Söderberg, reproduced in full colour.

The fourth, which is currently in the works, will be published in may 2011 edited by Carl Abrahamsson See Edda-Publishing for information and ordering |
