You have to do the work.
Words are not enough.
Words are mostly in the way.

It is your work practice, your ART-ing that supports remembering, realigning, reestablishing and realizing the truth in you. It is that truth you find in your ART that you integrate into your everyday life. And thereby share insights and contribute values that support your wellbeing and that of all other beings alike. ART is life, life is ART. You are life and you are ART.
Integration, not separation, is the foundation of our practicing together. We engage all senses, including thought. We play and take risks. We sit and we breathe. We listen and we meditate.
And we do the work. In a non-judging, supportive, nurturing, protected environment that we all co-create together. It is not the word, not the breath, not even meditation; those are all in preparation for the work - life itself.

For practitioners of all disciplines and all levels of experience that search to find meaning and value in ART.

BERND HAUSSMANN divides his time between Marblehead and Maine where he and his wife Anne also work on a 450-acre nature project. Haussmann has a presence on the Cape, exhibitions and workshops, since the late 1990s. His work is exhibited and visible in numerous private, corporate, and museum collections around the world, including PAAM. Having taught at several American universities, colleges and non-profit organizations, his teachings now revolve around mindfulness in art/through art, in workshops and private tutoring, in the US and overseas. Haussmann is a prolific artist in his own right and encourages environmental, inclusionary, interactive projects and collaborations.  One such approach was his non-verbal "Dialogues" with scientists, as artist-in-residence at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT. The most recent interactive event “Warum ist das Licht” took place in Germany. Haussmann creates at his studio in Maine and continues to give workshops, in person and remotely.
