OverviewThe visual arts, a privileged means of communicating Christian belief for more than a thousand years, were marginalized if not rejected by 16th-century reformers. This volume, containing papers read in a five-part conference held in France, Italy, and the US in 2017, brings together Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, and Anglican theologians, art historians and artists in an unprecedented ecumenical conversation indispensable for future dialogue. With its broad range of confessional and methodological viewpoints, it offers an 'agora' experience of faith-based reactions to human creativity and communication.
