Welcome to Art Mystery School.
We are glad you found us, and we will make sure it is worth your time and that it nurtures your curiosity and hunger for growth.
In short, we are a school of Authenticity, and we have created a unique, avant-garde, structured method for developing it.
No other institution in the world is doing this.
By gathering tools from self-development, art forms, spirituality, psychology, and ancient lineages, we explore the boundaries of the self in relationship to all of life—and life answers our call, strengthening our uniqueness.
Why is it that some artists with no knowledge at all can penetrate your soul? What makes them special? Can we cultivate that? How? Can we create a system for it? Is it possible to teach authenticity?
These are some of the questions that drove our founder, Juan Luqui, in his decade-long quest, and they live at the core of Art Mystery School.
Juan attended Berklee College of Music under a full scholarship, then moved on to become an elite, internationally acclaimed composer, producer, and musician; and yet, he felt empty and artistically unfulfilled until he discovered this method.
In addition, as time passed, he realized most of his friends and colleagues were dropping out of their dreams, not able to find a way to make their creativity seen, to make themselves evident through their creations, let alone make a living out of it.
Something had to be done. A deeper mission was born in his heart: a system designed to be the missing piece in artistic development.
At Art Mystery School, we believe everyone is born with a unique creative gift. Everyone.
This gift is a peculiar way of being, thinking, feeling, moving, relating, expressing, and thus, creating. This is what we call Authenticity. Everyone is already authentic; the objective is to remove the layers protecting that treasure—that uniqueness.
It is our mission to help each student find, nurture, and develop their authentic expression. Through online courses, in-person experiences, masterclasses, a community of like-minded humans, and free community resources, we have created a structured path to becoming more of yourself, empowering your creativity in a permanent and joyful way.
All art education institutions focus their curriculum solely on technique. This is important and encouraged, but more often than not, it creates “cookie-cutter” artists—“theory experts” with little awareness of who they are or what they have to offer, and basically no tools for expressing themselves with artistic vulnerability.
This is what makes us unique.
You empower something by giving it feelings and emotions.
What part of yourself needs to become more alive?
Our vast array of courses and retreats will provide students with tested tools, practices, and philosophies to cultivate their uniqueness, and challenge them to show up for themselves.
We approach creative development holistically, bringing students into connection and participation with what matters most to them and their unique visions for this life.
We welcome all disciplines and levels because we are not competing with anyone outside of ourselves. We are coming back to ourselves.
Assignments are not “classical homework,” but practices—concrete, life-altering actions and habit changes to apply immediately to your life. This school is only for the most committed individuals. It will challenge you to become the highest version of yourself: the one you know is waiting for you right around the corner of time.
