Sacred Signs: How Jewish, Christian, and Muslim Visual Symbols Draw form the Same Well
This image-rich talk will introduce some of the many examples of how symbols in the visual art of the Abrahamic traditions draw from a pagan vocabulary that precedes all of them as well as from each other; how they converge and diverge across history and geography; and how they continue to appear in the modern and contemporary art of a world that often defines itself to be secular.
