Hardback. Condition: New. The volume and accompanying exhibition discuss the creation of sacred space in the 21st century, examining 28 works by Tobi Kahn including his recent commission for Congregation Emau-El B'ne Jeshrun in Milwaukee. Each work is accompanied by a Meditation by novelist and poet Nessa Rapoport. From large canvasses with biomorphic forms to three-dimensional pieces such as the art nouveau-influenced thrones, Kahn's work has a presence that is immediately striking, and his reputation has grown steadily since his inclusion in the Guggenheim's New Horizons in American Art show in 1985. Much of Kahn's art, especially his landscapes, is ambiguously abstract, inviting the viewer to project onto it their own ideas, feelings and desires. Acting as aids to contemplation, they can be seen as building on the work of Romantic artists who sought to capture the majesty of nature and imbue it with divine resonance.…

Contributions by Dirk H. Breiding. Margot Fassler, Ena G. Heller, Robin M. Jensen, Kathryn Kueny, C. Griffith Mann, Mary C. Moorman, Patricia C. Pongracz, Xavier John Seubert and Nancy Wu. Perspectives on Medieval Art: Learning through Looking examines medieval art from a number of different viewpoints to reveal how the art of the Middle Ages provides a unique insight into the wider issues of medieval politics and culture, as well as society's longing for ecclesiastical drama, the desires of patrons, the wider social framework and distinct regional aesthetics. This volume is based on the proceedings of the Seeing the Medieval: Realms of Faith/Visions for Today symposium organized by the Fordham Center on Religion and Culture, Fordham University and the Museum of Biblical Art (MOBIA), New York. Contributions from leading theologians and historians variously study life and art in the Middle Ages, why the medieval period matters today and how medieval art speaks to a 21st century audience. Scholars from different disciplines, including Thomas Cahill and Kathryn Kueny, consider individual works of art simultaneously and examine the whole subject of teaching medieval art from museum to divinity school, to the university and college classroom. Lavishly illustrated, with color photographs of medieval buildings and monuments, art objects and illuminated manuscripts, and including suggestions for further reading and a comprehensive index, this volume will be a major contribution to our broader understanding of medieval art and its teaching. …
