Description



Pdf / English / 1984 Mowbray / 91 pages / 13.1 MB / by Michael Day

This book is an attempt to discover and examine visual works of art of the twentieth century which are to be found in English churches. There are, scattered up and down the country — in obscure village churches as well as in famous cathedrals — works of art by modern artists which are not only worth looking at but which fulfill their primary purpose of turning minds and imaginations towards God.

It must be admitted that there are some objects in our churches which would best be forgotten, for they are poor and wretched examples of works of art, unworthy of their place in church in any age. The problem is not so much how to dispose of the bad and cherish the good but, first of all, one of discrimination. There is a great, common ignorance about twentieth century art, inside and outside churches, and one of the purposes of this book is to draw people's attention to the works we possess so that their appreciation and critical judgement may be sharpened.
