Michael Bertiaux

Michael Paul Bertiaux (born 1935) is a philosopher and artist. His extensive use of strong colors, mediumistic inspiration and religious symbolism make his art unique.[citation needed] Bertiaux is also an occultist in the Haitian Voodoo tradition, which he combines with elements from western magick and western sex-magical tradition.

Bertiaux is the Patriarch of the Ecclesia Gnostica Spiritualis[citation needed], a church tradition drawing upon the apostolic succession. At one time he was the head of the O.T.O.A.[citation needed], Monastery of the Seven Rays[citation needed] and La Couleuvre Noire[citation needed]. He passed the official leadership to Dr. Courtney Willis[citation needed], now head of Technicians of the Sacred.

At one time Bertiaux was associated with the claim of being a Grand Master of the OTO[citation needed].

He is the author of the elusive esoteric text, The Voudon Gnostic Workbook - a strong influence in the Invisibles[citation needed], a comic book by Grant Morrison.
