Mediumship and art: Psychic Painting

A ballet dancer (*) by Degas through Luiz Gasparetto.  Painting and Drawing mediums: those who paint and draw under the influence of spirits. (A. Kardec, 1861," The Book on Mediums ", 2nd Part, Chapter XVI, 'Special Mediums'.) The literature of psychic phenomena has many colorful types of mediumship manifestations, of mediums with amplified human skills. These were the ancient wizards of primordial times, the prophets of the Biblical past. All types of human manifestations are, in fact, possible through mediumship including highly specialized abilities such as music composition, poetry and painting (rarely called psychopictography ). The most notorious example of music composition was Mrs. Rosemay Brown (1916-2001). In English speaking countries the poetic mediumship of Patience Worth (Braude, 2003) became very notorious. However, painting is also a registered feature of mediumship phenomenology. Although both kinds of 'artistic mediumship' are...

A s announced in the blog NWSpiritism , we can now read some historic editions of " La Revue Spirite" (originally published in French, 1 ) by Allan Kardec in English . The formal name of the work in English is " The Spiritist Magazine - Journal of Psychological Studies ". This achievement is just the beginning of a monumental translation work still under preparation by IPEAK (Allan Kardec Institute of Research) and carried out by Luiz A. V. Cheim. IPEAK website is a bilingual page (in Portuguese and French) which we hope will bring more content in English in the future. This is surely a relevant endeavor, since A. Kardec was one of the pioneers of the psychic research but he is widely unknown to English speaking people. There are several cases of hauntings and psychic communications analysed by Kardec as a first read through "The Spiritist Magazine" can reveal.  The Magazine also was a key tool in the beginning of Spiritism, since it contains m...
