Making the Second City Church Lenten Cross

April 10, 2017 by Theodore Prescott No Comments

I professed faith in Christ in 1970, right as I was completing my M.F.A. in sculpture. I was living in Baltimore, where I studied at the Rinehart School of Sculpture, Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA). The results of my conversion were mixed. My behavior certainly changed in some positive ways, but artistically I was stymied. I could not find any contemporary role models.

Book Review: Modern Art and the Life of a Culture

January 6, 2017 by Bob Trube No Comments

Summary: A response to the classic work Modern Art and the Death of a Culture by H. R. Rookmaaker, arguing that Rookmaaker was unnecessarily pessimistic in his assessment of modern art, overlooking the religious impulses that shaped much of modern art.

Learning to See (Scholar’s Compass)

May 19, 2015 by Hannah Eagleson 1 Comment

When I teach students to look at art, the first question I ask them is “what is it?” By this, I do not mean ‘what do you think you see?’ but ‘what do you actually see?’. – Sarah Awad
