- Tim_Holmes abstract "For the actor of the same name, see Tim Holmes (actor)Tim Holmes (born May 8, 1955), American sculptor and filmmaker, lives in Montana. He was the first American artist ever invited to exhibit solo at the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, from 1993 to 1994, where three of his sculptures remain on permanent exhibit. Holmes creates art and creative ideas to further social justice and to promote a more sustainable and responsive future.His work has gained notice also among some of the world's peacemakers. Among Holmes' best-known collectors are Nobel prize winners Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Jimmy Carter, along with many other international figures such as Václav Havel, Coretta Scott King and Mrs. Anwar Sadat. Holmes has created sculpture for many humanitarian projects such as the Physicians for Social Responsibility, PeaceLinks, and Cape Town's bid for the 2004 Olympics. In 2000 he created the bronze sculpture Anima Mundi for the United Nations Millennium Peace Prize for Women, awarded to heroines working to bridge conflicts the world over.Following the Tiananmen Square massacre in China in 1989 Holmes was commissioned by the China Information Center to create a sculpture, China Peace, to commemorate that event and raise money to get the true account past Chinese official censors through to the Chinese people in what has become known as “the first FAX revolution in history”.Holmes exhibits in American museums and galleries across the US as well in Europe but often prefers exhibiting his work in venues outside the standard art world. He has shown work in prominent cathedrals such as the National Cathedral in Washington DC and the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City.Though Holmes is most well known for sculpture, he has worked in a variety of media from museum installation to filmmaking and experiments in new media. Holmes's work primarily focuses on the human form as a spiritual metaphor. His film series, the Body Psalms Project is a multi-tiered exercise in social engagement using art as a catalyst to inspire people wherever their lives have meaning, whether that be through traditional institutions or on the street. The project consists of a series of events, rituals and films involving dancers unfolding passages of sacred writings painted on their bodies in a unique kind of sculptural poetry performance. The work challenges participants and viewers to re-evaluate the meaning and value of the human body in global capitalist culture.Holmes' mediums have diverged from metal sculpture (primarily the 70's to 90's) to painting and drawing (90's) to filmmaking (2000's) and on into more esoteric media he refers to as psychic art, where the viewer's apprehension of the work precedes the material messenger, or in the case of “Ritual Relationships”– rooted in depth psychology– in which the viewer's apprehension of an art work is replaced by a very limited direct encounter with another person.In recent years Holmes's target audience has also expanded beyond the individual art viewer to the greater social landscape, causing him to refer to himself as a “cultural sculptor”. In 2011, following the dramatic events of the Arab Spring, Holmes designed a model for a global democracy called \"Democratic Globe\" that would offer every person on earth citizenship in a globalized world. In this vision, every person would have a voice as a citizen of the planet through a web-based mechanism in which individual values could be aggregated into a kind of world human spirit, which, according to the model would “resist evil of all kinds” and also keep control of an unfolding future in human hands rather than those of rapidly evolving artificial intelligence.This threat became the focus of his theory of The Erotic Crisis, outlined in a TED talk in 2014, referring to the anti-flesh trajectory of human history. He views the human pursuit of progress as a blind spot in the human psyche that would necessarily kill off the species with the development of superintelligence unless the values of the flesh are preserved above those of the intellect.Holmes launched an initiative in 2013 to bring greater honesty to the U.S. monetary system with the distribution of “Blue Bills”, U.S. currency dyed blue and stamped to indicate that these bills are backed by the value of a healthy environment and a strong community. Holmes refers to the Blue Bills project as a “people's movement”, as he encourages people to dye their own bills following simple instructions. He says Blue Bills actively resist pursuit in the current capitalist economy of “profits at all costs”. Instead they demand use to promote healthiness, which, being backed by faith in “the value of a clean world” become nearly impossible to use for exploitive purposes. He refers to the idea of Blue Bills, as “the most elegant of any of my creations to date”.In 2013 Holmes launched a project called Random Gifts of Art with Garret Garrels, (international speaker and founder of Pink Gloves Boxing), in which original drawings by Holmes are given for free to random strangers around the U.S. and Europe as an act of creative kindness. Each drawing's progress can be tracked through Facebook: Random Gifts of Art. In 2015 the two published Random Gifts of Art, a book about the project. Each book is intended to be freely passed along as a means of inspiring generosity and can be traced and its gift stories shared through the Random Gifts of Art website.Tim Holmes was also a member of the political satire and comedy group the Montana Logging and Ballet Co., which dissolved in 2013 after 38 years performing, the longest-lived political satire group in the nation. The MLBC was billed as National Public Radio’s “resident political satirists” during the Clinton years and perhaps the longest-surviving political satire group in the nation. They performed around the U.S. from 1975 to 2013 for audiences as diverse as the U.S. Congress, the National Press Club, and Montana PBS, which featured a special about their final live concert in 2012.".
