This special issue of "Being Human" features Forczek and his work in the Centerfold "Gallery"

West Coast “Illuminism” Artist Leszek Waladyslaw Forczek 

unexpectedly crossed the “rainbow threshold” on 

May 20, 2019 at the age of 72. 


Illuminism painting relates to the mysteries of Light and Darkness, 

the underlying realities of nature, the cosmos, and the individual soul. 

Color is at the heart of Forczek’s engaging, elegant and thoughtful 

sensibility. His work is based on Goethe’s color theory as developed

by Rudolf Steiner; and English-born, Dutch-resident artist and color 

therapist Liane Collot d’Herbois.  Forczek stumbled upon a solo 

exhibition of Collot’s paintings in Colmar, France, a turning 

point in his young life. Her breakthrough work on Light, Color 

& Darkness encouraged Forczek to a life-long development of 

Illuminism as an artistic and spiritual path.


Forczek wrote that Rudolf Steiner “actively responded to the 

request of artists such as Kandinsky and Mondrian who were 

searching for a spiritual meaning in painting, during a time of 

chaos and crisis... Steiner provided artists with a new basis to 

approach art, color, and painting, making countless references 

to the correlation of light, color and darkness with thinking, 

feeling and willing. This understanding of color as integral to 

the evolution of the human being—both cosmic and physical—

was able to endow art with a healing and spiritual property.”


Forczek’s paintings are characterized by their unique sense of 

luminosity, space, and movement, harmonizing the inner and 

outer aspects of Light, Color and Darkness: this balance of 

inner and outer is in its essence, beauty, art and life. He taught 

throughout the US for over 18 years. 


His last major project, Topaz Mountain, four years in the 

making, was a unique chromatic animation of landscape 

paintings accompanied by compelling poetry and music. It 

is a transformational statement, mysterious and luminous, on 

the beauty and vulnerability of mountains, lakes, and glaciers. 

Forczek’s work is in public and private collections 

throughout North America. Discover more at his website
