Ideograms is the third volume in a series of the collected art of Daniel Gautier. It includes color reproductions of many of his most recent paintings, rendered in symbolist, visionary, and abstract genres. The paintings represent archetypes or philosophical principles to be found in various mystical, mythical, and idealist philosophical traditions. The artist's intent is to communicate the quintessential energy, order o feeling behind various universal Forms. The artist has written a book, entitled Songs of Creation, that serves as a companion piece to Ideograms: The Paintings, in which an original poem and scholarly commentary accompanies each painting.
