Images in, through and for "The W/Word" : a revisioning of Christian artTruter, Carmen Estelle 30 November 2007 (has links)
During the premodern era, images corresponded to the doctrines of ”The
Word”, but in contemporary society this relationship is open and does not
correspond to the divine Word. Because of our perceived, postmodern
inability to respond to ancient Christian symbols, there is a need to revision
these symbols and Christian spirituality. The result of such a
revisioning would include an ”opening up” of ”The Word” and of traditional,
worn symbols which have lost vitality in this milieu. Art produced with this
in mind needs to make ”The Word” more currently accessible and relevant.
Further, this revisioning would add significance and enhance the possibility
of resurrecting language dealing with ”The Word”. In the process of
revitalising old Christian imagery and language, I aim to show that the
primary role of contemporary Christian art is to function metaphorically.
Finally, I argue that Christian images can take on significance as
contemporary images. / Art History Visual Arts and Musicology / M.A. (Visual Arts)
