THIS IS A PAST EVENT.
The purpose of this course is to provoke and pursue questions of spirituality and ministry that arise from encounter and engagement with the visual arts. The course focuses on three exhibits of contemporary art – the Elsewhere Living Museum of art creation using found materials of a long-closed wholesale warehouse in Greensboro; “Things Wondrous & Humble: American Still Life” on display at the Reynolda House Museum of American Art; and the “Graphic Design: Now in Production” exhibit at the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Arts. The course explores how artists articulate and express human questions in ways unique to their own experience and creativity. As these questions evoke theological themes, the course follows a larger aim of enriching imaginative resources for deepened spirituality, so that students are better prepared for creative and transformative leadership in ministry.
