Reviews

""Books from Aaron Rosen are always highly anticipated. One of this book's key insights is the significance of 'listening, ' both by Rosen as the interviewer and by the artists themselves, who are intuitive observers of the emerging, invigorating spirituality in their studios, works, and worlds. Another compelling theme is that of the relationship between art and ritual, especially when described by artists within the context of 'art making.' Spiritual Traces comes alive in a richly illustrated text, which illuminates the world of art and religion today."" --Diane Apostolos-Cappadona, Professor Emerita of Religious Art and Cultural History, Catholic Studies Program, Georgetown University ""Simultaneously ranging and precise, Spiritual Traces is an absorbing, expert, and uncommonly tender exploration of the textures, questions, and practices that yoke the making of art and the complicated project of living: in a body, with a soul, and in the world. This is a book of inquiry and communion, with something to teach us all."" --Molly McCully Brown, Editor in Chief, Image Journal ""By what wizardry Aaron Rosen manages to consistently find such attention worthy artistry, which he then engages with a supremely charitable eye, I cannot fathom; but I am so here for it."" --Matthew J. Milliner, Professor of Art History, Wheaton College
