RELIGIOUS ART | NEWS OF WEEK
ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
By TAHLIB
During Thursday's preview of the exhibit, a visitor from the Princeton University Art Museum approached me and said, "Whether you believe, or not, this show is amazing." That's the reaction visitors are sharing about the inaugural exhibition, "Alpha & Omega: Religious Risks" which opened on Friday as part of the Spirit & Place Festival, and that's why the Alpha Omega Prize (above) is my NEWS OF WEEK. Thirty-one artists: 27 professionals; three poets; and one student winner of the 3rd annual scholarship prize, have been curated to amaze. Since 2008, the Alpha & Omega Project for Contemporary Religious Arts has celebrated the intersections of art & faith with prizes, and 2013 culminates with artist awards on Saturday, November 9. Will you please join me in making a gift to the prize fund, and meet me in Indianapolis?
