Grey: Truly a Visionary

Your art critic Leah Ollman panned the exhibit “Sacred Mirrors: The Visionary Art of Alex Grey” at the Museum of Contemporary Art in San Diego as “suffocating,” “laughable” and “New Age cliches” (April 27).

This of course is only Ollman’s opinion. Many, many other people, especially those who have tasted the spiritual experiences that Grey portrays, agree with Ken Wilber, widely regarded as today’s foremost philosopher, who wrote in his foreword to Grey’s latest book that Alex Grey may be the most important spiritual artist in the world today.
