About this poster

"Clio is the Muse of history, daughter of memory. I suggest we remember where we came from, how we got here, who we are, and where we are going. History is not only a collection of objective facts; history is also a story. How we organize those objective facts says a lot about who we are, or who we want to be. When I realized I wanted more than anything to be a practicing artist, I realized I would devote my life to the muses. (That’s how I might organize my history, tell my story.) To The Muses – Orphic Hymn 75* To those whose breasts your sacred furies fire much-form’d, the objects of supreme desire: Sources of blameless virtue to mankind, who form to excellence the youthful mind; Who nurse the soul, and give her to descry the paths of right with Reason’s steady eye. Commanding queens who lead to sacred light the intellect refin’d from Error’s night; And to mankind each holy rite disclose, for mystic knowledge from your nature flows. Clio, and Erato, who charms the sight, with thee Euterpe minist’ring delight: Thalia flourishing, Polymina fam’d, Melpomene from skill in music nam’d: Terpischore, Urania heav’nly bright, with thee who gav’st me to behold the light. Come, venerable, various, pow’rs divine, with fav’ring aspect on your mystics shine; Bring glorious, ardent, lovely, fam’d desire, and warm my bosom with your sacred fire. The Orphic Hymns are at the foundation of the ancient Greek religion, as it was practiced during the Golden Age, at that civilization’s height, during its struggle to begin to define democracy, art, science, and reason. I feel we are at a place where human beings must define again democracy, art, science, and reason. What sort of Age awaits us?" - CS
