Mystical History of the Earth
An Art and Philosophy Project by gARY Goryani
Presented by:
The National Museum of American-Eurasian Art & Culture AND
The American-Eurasian Art Foundation
“Mystical History of the Earth” is a multidisciplinary art exhibition by Ukrainian-born artist Gary Goryani, dedicated to the development of Cosmosophy—a visionary philosophical approach that seeks to unite scientific knowledge and spiritual insight in the study of the Earth’s origin, evolution, and its place within the cosmos.
Through a series of large-scale paintings, installations, and mixed-media works, Goryani invites the viewer on a journey that traces the deep history of the planet, the emergence of life, and humanity’s evolving relationship with the universe. The project highlights both the material and metaphysical dimensions of existence, offering an immersive, contemplative experience.
Conceptual Framework
The exhibition is inspired by the work of visionary 20th-century thinkers such as Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Vladimir Vernadsky, and Yuri Shwiedak. Each explored the interconnectedness of life, energy, and cosmic evolution through scientific, philosophical, and spiritual frameworks.
As expressed in this project, Cosmosophy presents a holistic worldview in which Earth is not merely a physical planet but a conscious, evolving entity within the greater cosmos. This perspective invites a reconsideration of humanity’s role as an active and responsible participant in planetary and universal processes.

Cycle "Worlds visible and invisible." and "Japanese mythology"
Since ancient times, mankind has tried to visually depict the visible, real and invisible, imaginary worlds
Abstract-realistic inscriptions in the form of spirals, crosses, squares, labyrinths of star ornaments, etc., have been presented to us in the form of symbolic signs, the meaning and purpose of which require in some cases the decoding of their primeval value. It was with the help of symbolic symbolism that our ancestors covered their concepts about the eternal categories-the Creator, the Absolute, the Time, the Elements, creating a unique world of mythology. Symbolic images deeply penetrated the most memorable monuments of written and spoken verbal creativity - the Bible, epics of Gilgamesh, Vedas, Avesta, Cabala. Symbolism has become a universal element of human culture, contributing to the development of psychologically - sensory perception of Being. It is not without reason that Confucius noted that "SIGNS AND SYMBOLS MANAGE THE WORLD, NOT THE LAWS AND PEOPLE".
It is the infinity of manifestations, the complex structure of the universe, the individual searches of the Creator, coupled with personal experience of cognition, that attracted the artist of the burning hot to deep research in this area, in particular, to the creation of a series of works on the meditative Kabbalah. Traveling with exhibitions in different countries, communicating with outstanding creative personalities, participating in esoteric co-possessions, ethno-psychological groups, practicing various religious and philosophical teachings and meditative practices, was a sort of intellectual-cognitive pilgrimage that led to the construction and discovery of one's own artistic style. Paradise for sensual - intellectual enjoyment - than how we can characterize the installation -figurative works of Gary Goryany. In many of his works the author uses unusual technique of assemblage. This method can be called sculpture, creativity at the junction of sculpture and painting. As an important element, the artist uses wood to implant metal elements, massive reliefs. In the space of paintings and literally weave human bodies, animals, insects, plants, letter and geo-geometric elements, labyrinths and spirals
The main idea behind the creation of the "Japanese Cycle" is to bring abstraction closer to the phenomenon of Japanese sensuality. Its mystical ability not only to penetrate into the secret of the elements and forces, the natural world, myths and legends, the world of memory and imagination but also to focus the gaze at a certain point where the physical world merges with the formless world. To create a real opportunity to see the paths of meditative "penetration" and, consequently, "ascent." ..
The experience of discovering that all the diversity of being is only an appearance ", and at its core, the reality is an undivided One. The paintings are dedicated to the memory of Japanese artists Misao Yokoyama and Toshimitsu Imai ..
