The Artist's Spiritual Journey

The Artist's Spiritual Journey

We may make this journey many times in our lives, in ways great and small. For the artist, discerning his or her vocation as one of beauty, is the great journey. But every work of art produced by the artist represents the same journey on a smaller scale.

The Artists and the Church - John Paul II

The Artists and the Church - John Paul II

Pope Saint John Paul II perhaps understood the sensibility of artists better than most pontiffs. He was, after all, a poet, playwright, and actor himself. His Letter to Artists, written in 1999, deserves special attention among those struggling to find a way to reconcile being an artist with being Christian.
