Beskrivning
This book explores how the Spirit is represented in visual art, but also how the Spirit is at work in and through visual art, in all its forms. The volume editors and contributors engage visual art from the perspective of pneumatology to give theologies of culture fruitful new perspectives that begin with the Spirit rather than other common theological contact points. The book explores the Spirit’s role in art-making, looks at how the Spirit engages culture through the arts, and shows how the church has historically engaged the Spirit through visual art. Contributors ask how Christian convictions about and experiences of the Spirit might shape the way one thinks about visual art.

Recensioner i media

The Spirit and the Sketch is an important contribution to the study of theology and the arts. Green & Félix-Jäger have assembled a collection of essays that in their diversity of subjects and approaches are an embodiment of how the Gospel of John describes the Holy Spirit that it "blows where it pleases"—from Bob Dylan and Marc Chagall, to James Baldwin and Vassily Kandinsky, street art, kitsch, worship arts, and so much more. As Green writes in his introduction, "the Spirit gives the world a face," and that face is an infinitely diverse image. May this book inspire new collaborations and cooperations with that Spirit that enables us to see in ever new ways the face that gives life.
