different authors. The Stabile has it’s own 11 ft. in diameter and Rosewood
        turning carousel which is motorized to make a complete revolution every 60
        seconds. The whole project weighs approximately 1,500 pounds & requires
        a crew of 6 strong people to assemble it for exhibitions.
        The First side is the warm side and is a sunset over the ocean with tall
        cliffs representing the “Natural world”. The Sunset view is inspired by the
        proposition in the prologue from “Thus Spake zarathustra” by Frederic
        Neitchze: “Oh great Star, what would your happiness be if you had not
        those for whom you shine?”.
        The Second side is a view of the last perfect day of mid-summer at high
        noon with the buildings of the Cultural & Trade Center from ancient Lemuria
        representing  the  “Cultural  world”.  This  view  is  the  far  right  end  of  the
        second side with a mirror, shown here with two of my other Art-works:
        “Paradise” & “Fathom-less Billowing waves of Love”. This is at the far right
        end of the “Last Perfect Day” that shows the falling rocks from the earth
        quake and rising mountains.
        The  Third  side  is  a  view  from  inside  a  cave  and  is  very  mysterious
        representing the “Spiritual world”. The Theme of the Masterwork is “The
        Journey to the City of god” or “Citadel Divina”. The Third side, Spiritual
        world, Inside the Magic Cave is inspired by Mary Stewart’s Book titled:
        “The Crystal Cave” the story of the childhood of Merlin, the magician of
        king Arthur’s Court, and his studies inside the cave with spiritual things
        from which the Stabile gets it’s title; “The Crystal Cave”. The title of this
        side of the stabile is “The Falcon & the Ring-neck Dove”


        Adams loves to paint the sea in all of her many moods & manifestations,
        From quiet crystal calm days to gigantic surging storms and maelstroms
        holding ships in their maw. Loren Adams paints water like no-one else
        and can convince any viewer that they could get wet if they dare stand
        too close. He’s a serious Artist and believes that it takes perfection as
        a goal to achieve a Masterpiece.
        “Each  brushstroke  is  just  as  important  as  the  whole  picture.  while
        painting  it’s  the  center  of  my  consciousness.  knowing  all  the  while
        that a single sour note would ruin a symphony and a poorly formed
        brushstroke could ruin a fine oil painting!”
        In order for any Artwork to be great It must measure up to the stan-
        dards that other great Art measures up to. Loren Adams believes that
        Fine Art must be intellectually stimulating and the composition must
        be mathematically perfect. The perspective has to based on accuracy
        especially if the Art contains Architecture or Architectural elements. It
        needs to be historically significant & have a meaning that tells a story
        important  enough  to  help  widen  the  planetary  cultural  base.  These
