SUMMARY:Theopolis: Inaugural Gaudí Lecture with Jonathan Pageau
DESCRIPTION:Theopolis is excited to present the inaugural Gaudí Lecture\, featuring renowned liturgical artist\, writer\, and speaker Jonathan Pageau. \nThe notion of “art for art’s sake” continues to pervade contemporary thinking and practice in the arts. Art is understood as autonomous\, liberated from its connection to worship\, culture\, morality\, truth\, or beauty\, or reduced to a commodity valued primarily for its price and prestige. In either case\, art risks becoming detached from the larger human story. \nIn this lecture\, Pageau will argue that the response of the Christian imagination is not simply to reunite art with religious content by depicting biblical scenes or communicating moral messages. Rather\, liturgy and sacramentality must be recovered as the internal and coherent driving force of the arts themselves\, shaping their forms and their application within the Body of Christ. \n\n\n\nAbout Jonathan Pageau \n\n\nJonathan Pageau is a renowned liturgical artist\, writer\, and public speaker whose work explores symbolism\, religion\, art\, literature\, and culture. \nThrough his carvings\, writing\, lectures\, and The Symbolic World\, Pageau has helped a wide audience recover a symbolic vision of the world\, one in which spiritual meaning is revealed through images\, stories\, rituals\, and the patterns of everyday life. Drawing deeply from the Christian tradition\, his work offers a compelling way of engaging many of the central questions facing contemporary culture. \nTheopolis is honoured to welcome Jonathan Pageau to Toronto to deliver the inaugural Gaudí Lecture.
