Hot topics in galleries

The latest edition of Art & Christianity (57) arrived in the post today. As well as my review of Daniel Siedell's God in the Gallery, it also features:

Religion and spirituality are once again hot topics in galleries around the world, as evidenced by Holy Inspiration, where top works from Amsterdam's Stedelijk collection reveal the diversity in artists’ religious experience, and Septiformis, an exhibition held at the Saint Michel and Gudula Cathedral in Brussels. The Editorial of Issue 57 muses on whether the phenomenon of such exhibitions represents "a continuing quest, in an increasingly fractured post-modern world, for spiritual values and meanings perceived as residing in, and even emanating from, the exhibited art works."
