Acting as curators, they have invited 100 artists to respond to one of art's most enduring challenges: picturing the divine. The artists selected are those whose work the curators know and admire, those who possess the sense of humor and audacity necessary for such a project, or artists who are "likely to surprise." The works in this exhibition explore many different themes, including miracles, divine intervention, baptism, heaven, martyrdom, and the search for enlightenment. Included is one work by each of the 100 artists--primarily drawings, photographs, and paintings, along with a few sculptures and single-channel videos--some of them made in response to the curators' call for participation." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Foreword and acknowledgments, by Judith Oich Richards; 100 artists see God, by John Baldessari and Meg Cranston; Ways of seeing God, by Thomas McEvilley; Plates and artists' statements, by introduced by Meg Cranston. *** Includes: Reverend Ethan Acres - Eleanor Antin - Chris Burden - Sam Durant - Jimmie Durham - Nicole Eisenman - Katharina Fritsch - Liam Gillick - Jack Goldstein - Scott Grieger - Rebecca Horn - Christian Jankowski - Mike Kelley - Mary Kelly - Martin Kippenberger - Louise Lawler - Roy Lichtenstein - Rita McBride - Paul McCarthy - Catherine Opie - Tony Oursler - Jorge Pardo - Raymond Pettibon - Paul Pfeiffer - Richard Prince - Rob Pruitt & Jonathan Horowitz - Gerhard Richter - Susan Rothenberg - Ed Ruscha - Gary Simmons - Lawrence Weiner - James Welling - Franz West.
