Rather than 'religious art' reflecting Christian ideology, current practices frequently initiate projects that question the values and traditions of the host space, or present objects and events that challenge its visual conventions. In the light of these developments, this book asks what conditions are favourable to enhancing and expanding the possibilities of church-based art, and how can these conditions be addressed? What viable language or strategies can be formulated to understand and analyse art's role within the church? Focusing on concepts drawn from anthropology, comparative religion, art theory, theology and philosophy, this book formulates a lexicon of terms built around the notion of encounter in order to review the effective uses and experience of contemporary art in churches. The author concludes with the prognosis that art for the church has reached a critical and decisive phase in its history, testing the assumption that contemporary art should be a taken-for-granted element of modern church life. Art and the Church: A Fractious Embrace uniquely combines conceptual analysis, critical case studies and practical application in a rigorous and inventive manner, dealing specifically with contemporary art of the past twenty-five years, and the most recent developments in the church's policies for the arts. 606 $aChristianity and art$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aChristianity and art$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aArt and society$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aArt and society$xHistory$y21st century 615 0$aChristianity and art$xHistory 615 0$aChristianity and art$xHistory 615 0$aArt and society$xHistory 615 0$aArt and society$xHistory 676 $a704.9482 700 $aKoestle-Cate$b Jonathan.$01864467 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910953186003321 996 $aArt and the church$94471294 997 $aUNINA
