Reflections of the New Aeon was an unusual two-part exhibit curated by Los Angeles artists Carolyn Tillie and Rob Cluff in two adjacent Long Beach galleries, Eleven-Seven and Raymundo's.  In one gallery, the viewer experienced an unprecedented collection of historical artwork by the noted Victorian occultist  Aleister Crowley and several of his devotees.  Followers of Crowley, whose works were displayed, include WWI General and one of the greatest military theorist of all time J. F. C. Fuller;  famed artist Austin Osman Spare;  painter, archivist, musicologist, filmmaker, and anthropologist Harry Smith; and poet, artist, and actress Marjorie Cameron.

Complementing and reflecting this unusual collection was a juried art exhibition of 26 modern artists from three countries.  John Antoine Labadie, Chetna Mehta and Joseph Miller are only a few of the American artists whose works were accepted.  International artists include Carmen Lucaci from Romania and Christopher Kukiel from Canada.
