Christian Art at Montreat College in Montreat, NC

During the month of Apr., Christians in the Visual Arts (CIVA) will proudly display Window into Eternity: A Rediscovery of Holy Images in the Montreat College Hamilton Art Gallery in Montreat, NC. This traveling exhibition of icons will focus on the traditional canon and interpretation of Christian holy images. The work will be defined by a canonical perspective which will show the many variations utilized by contemporary iconographers within traditional themes. The exhibition will be an examination of the historical place of holy images in the Christian tradition within a modern framework.

The purpose of the exhibit is to show that iconography is a vibrant on-going Christian visual worship expression, to examine the place of holy images within both the Christian tradition and the world at large, to encourage an understanding of those images, and to provide an opportunity to have the best iconographers' works exposed to a larger community.
