Art 4 God

What is the thinking on this sort of Christian art by Stephen Sawyer?

https://www.art4god.com/

Does it have a place in the Christian spiritual life?

Crass?

Brilliant?

Insightful?

Probably no surprises that I’m not a fan, just to be transparent to start with.

It is well painted to be fair; just awful in every other way imo.

Um, er . . . I'm sure he meant well.

Shouldn't Jesus look half-Jewish and half-Cosmic?

In this one, it seems like Jesus is Bogarting that 8-ball [if I am even using that right].

Get your own stuff, dude!

Jesus is probably quoting Wilson Fisk as we type:

"It makes me feel alone."

While I enjoy it and think the themes and style are powerful, I would not want to see it in a church, but I definitely would not mind seeing it in a person's home.

Would you have it in your home?

Interesting things in the store.

All this said, I don't think there is one "correct" response to art.

Good art can speak to different people in different ways.

Kudos for the Wilson Fisk reference.
