Sacred Art: Spiritual Principles for Faithful Interpretation

Taught by Jem Sullivan, Ph.D.

We all want to truly understand and experience great art – especially religious art. But you need more than just learning to value brush strokes, figure placement, and perspective. As a professor and author, Dr. Jem Sullivan is uniquely qualified to present both the artistic elements of great art and the spiritual dimension inherent in Christian art.

Religious art is rooted in the theological foundation of the Church – the Incarnation. A painting, sculpture, or fresco can speak the language of the Incarnation: the Word of God. Professor Sullivan will teach you how to see that language spoken in art, how to hear it, and how to receive it into your heart. She introduces concrete tools for rediscovering the profound messages of religious art that are too often overlooked.
