NEW YORK---During Holy Week of 1984, Edwina Sandys’ Christa was displayed in the Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine as part of a small exhibition on the feminine divine. Conversations about the politics of identity have changed tremendously since the 1980s. In turn, the Cathedral is thrilled to display Christa once again, alongside works by 21 other contemporary artists including Kara Walker and García Román, all exploring the language, symbolism, art, and ritual associated with the historic concept of the Christ image and the divine as manifested in every person—across all genders, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and abilities.
