Description

Explore the connection between modern creativity and faith with Memento Mori in Contemporary Art. Part of the Routledge Studies in Theology, Imagination and the Arts, this book examines how four influential artists - Francis Bacon, Joseph Beuys, Robert Gober, and Damien Hirst - approach the concept of death. By analyzing their use of Christian imagery, the text looks at how these artists pose theological questions and test the limits of religious language in a modern world. The study places these works within a wider theological framework, offering new ways to understand the narration of the betrayal of Christ through Bacon's art and the deeper meanings found in the works of Beuys. This book is an essential resource for those interested in the intersection of religious thought and visual culture.
