Within the Christian tradition, sacred scripture has been the primary source of God's revelation. But what about the art we experience in our daily lives? Does God self-reveal in paintings, architecture and sculptures, and maybe even graffiti and rap videos? This presentation will explore these questions and attempt to situate the intersection of God's presence in various forms of art and our experience of them.
