Where Art and Faith Converge
Michael Fitzgerald
Where Art and Faith Converge - Oxford George Ronald 2008 - ix, 262 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 22 cm
Where does art intersect with faith? In this collection of essays, memoirs, stories and poems Bahá’í artists reflect on what they do. The different arts represented include drama, visual art, music and literature. Art can provide answers not only to the ‘Why?’ of things in individual lives – it can illumine whole societies. So can religion. Bahá’ís believe that just as religion has influenced the development of past civilizations, so now the revelation of Bahá’u’lláh will bring a global civilization into being. Art will play a key role in this process. ‘. . . in this wonderful new age, art is worship.’ ‘Abdu’l-Bahá
