How to Delete De Chirico Metaphysical Art AR

Augmented Reality (AR) art gallery with music composed and performed on the art of Giorgio de Chirico by Dr Svetlana Rudenko. Explore music art soundscapes based on the works of Italian artist and writer De Chirico (1888-1978). Born in Greece, De Chirico founded the art movement of Metaphysical Art (1910-1920), inspired by traditions of symbolism and surrealism and at the same time reflecting on the mythology of his birthplace. He believed that juxtaposing elements and objects refresh our perception and give metaphysical meaning to familiar surroundings. Every object has a symbolical meaning. Svetlana Rudenko’s music reflects on the atmosphere of the paintings and their metaphysical feel. Carl Jung said about de Chirico’s painting Anxious Journey: “The title and gloomy passages of the painting express the nature of the first contact with the unconscious when the individuation process begins. The unconscious is often symbolized by corridors, labyrinths, or mazes.” (The Process of Individuation by M.-L. von Franz in Carl Jung’ s Man and his Symbols, Random House, 1968, p. 176)
