Descrizione

Bound, red cloth, illustrated dustjacket in colour, 185 x 250mm., 248pp., profound colour illustration. ISBN 9780714150536. What makes a work of art Christian? Is it in the eye of the artist or the viewer? Can its meaning be understood by an individual artist or patron, or only within a Christian community? How was Christian art created and sustained over two millennia? How has it influenced and responded to the art of other great world religions? What is its function in post-Christian societies? This innovative book liberates Christian art from its traditional chronological framework and treats it as a response to universal human themes: relationships between women and men, food as an expression of friendship, refugees seeking asylum, coping with old age. New condition.
