Amazing Christian artists

Sue N — Fri, 18 Jan 2008 08:51:21 +0000

Dear Everyone,

I have just seen an amazing piece of perfomance art on this Youtube link, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svL1GuxxpvA

Marc Eckel paints Jesus’ face large, live and with his hands! It is very inspiring.

Let me know if you come across any really inspiring Christian art examples.

Love Arts Manchester

jennieden — Wed, 19 Dec 2007 16:08:53 +0000

Just completed a gruelling few days in Manchester.

There was a tremendous amount of variety and talent at the show but not enough visitors to make it!

I had some fantastic interactions with a variety of people, students in particular, for which I am most greatful as it helped pass the time. I was lucky enough to sell a couple of pieces too which helped me break even. Hopefully next year will attract a bigger crowd.

Creative role models

Who are your role models when it comes to creating as a Christian?

I find Rouault an inspiration for the way he combines compassion and critique, Chagall for the way in which reconciliation informs every aspect of his work from content through to construction, Albert Herbert for the freedom and depth of his style and imagery, Norman Adams for the vibrancy of his use of colour, and John Reilly for the way in which he depicts the oneness and unity of God’s invisible power binding all things into one whole.

Reality TV

Aidan Meller — Wed, 10 Oct 2007 16:03:01 +0000

With the huge number of Reality TV programs now on TV, from dancing/singing competitions, to voyeurism of Big Brother, do we think there is a place for Christians? I am looking for two answers:

Should a Christian watch these programmes “in order to witness” to those at work who discuss these programmes?
Should a Christian be part of these programmes, actually go on the TV like Gareth Gates did?

My point is, should we as artists be following the overall trends in Culture to add our viewpoin
