John 20: The Second Gardener
Maria Fee In the beginning God affirmed matter and set into the cosmos a generative force that allows for both, beauty and sustainability. Yet the fall obscures our perception of his world; lost is our view of the garden. Our need for glory somehow trumps the Triune God’s. Thus, tarnished by brokenness, we no longer see God or the world rightly. This is one re...

Thomas Martin
This week we welcome and enjoy Thomas Martin's latest work. www.thomasmartinstudio.com "For me, drawing is a way to integrate my whole person, the unconscious, the felt and the rational, the desire to organize and the impulse to improvise. It functions as an intermediary momentbetween the idea and the reality, between the emotion and the response (T...

Quarternity
Maria Fee Anselm Kiefer’s painting Quaternity depicts a bare wooden interior. The room is the artist’s studio containing three small, seemingly contained fires and a serpent. The three flames are labeled Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; the serpent is branded, Satan. I will not presume to read into Kiefer’s symbolism, but for the sake of this entry I will ut...

The Deep Places: Accessibility and Responsibility
Kenyon Adams As artists we have access to a key environment in the structure of a human being. Nigel Goodwin calls it "your belly". Martha Graham calls it "your center". Aretha Franklin calls it "my soul" and King David called it "my innermost being". This deep place exists between dreaming and waking where we are most ourselves, in...

Art and Suffering: Some Thoughts on Referencing Without Resisting
A recent trip to with friends to the United Nations NY Headquarters, and a subsequent perusal of its main gallery's current photographic exhibition, DeterMined, prompted me to revisit some thoughts on art and suffering. With the biblical prompting to "look after" those who suffer (James 1:27), I am particularly provoked by works that deal with the subject. D...

Faith-Based Diplomacy
The International Center for Religion and Diplomacy attempts to reduce violence by engaging the religious ideas behind the violence. While most American policymakers ignore religion, Douglas Johnston enters into madrassas and uses the teachings of their indigenous religion to generate respect for human rights, womens’ rights, and religious tolerance. This lect...

Taking the Plunge
Maria Fee It is safe to say artists have experienced the complex distance between what is and what will be. This is usually typified in that stilled moment, the one prior to a performance or clean canvas, when every ounce of being gathers to commence action. It’s like convincing yourself to take the plunge into water, despite the uncertainties of the frigid deep, an...

Culture as Liturgy
Christians engaged in cultural renewal need to be cognizant of how cultural practices viscerally shape our desires. We are not disembodied brains who view the world with a detached intellectualism. We are shaped by the cultural spaces we inhabit and the cultural habits we practice. Unless we realize what subliminal messages these cultural liturgies are send...
