The Gnostic question-- Which of the great demiurges, Jahweh or Satan, animates and empowers the music? If we can't believe the story about the shepherds and the angels and the wise men and the star and the manger and so on, then it's even harder to believe in Demiurges and archons and emanations and what have you. Last year the Philadelphia Museum of Art purchased Dorothea Tanning's Birthday, 1942, an early self-portrait in which the bare-breasted, bramble-skirted heroine, accompanied by an apparently benevolent minidragon (first of the animal demiurges so often inhabiting the artist's future paintings), stands with her hand on the knob of a white door in an infinite regress of half-open portals. |
