An Investigation Of “Revelation” In Contemporary Art, John Brian Skoor

All Master's Theses

It is the purpose of this study (1) to investigate various examples of paintings and sculptures in which the artist claimed to have revealed himself or to have had a spiritual experience in the creation of the work; (2) to present several select statements by artists and theologians who claim revelation is the dynamic, sustaining force in all creation; (3) to correlate art and religion, emphasizing that the common thread which underlies them both is revelation.
