View Product Details

Explore the intersection of art movements and spirituality in this insightful book, linking the crucifixion, creation, and our commitment to environmental stewardship.

The book gives an account of various movements in art and their relation to the visual and in churches and in liturgy, for example the Franciscan movement, different approaches to the crucifixion, and the restoration of creation. It recovers the links between the cross and creation, and relates the baptismal covenant to a commitment to care for creation.
