ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
By
Gregory & Ernest Disney-Britton

| "Christ Weeps Over Lazarus" (2019) by Michael Cook. Charcoal on paper. 53 x 40cm. Original gifted to the Community of the Resurrection in Derbyshire, UK. |
When Christ wept for Lazarus, he already knew he would resurrect him, but he wept anyway (
John 11:35). This week, we wept for
teachers forced to return to schools during
COVID-19. We wept for
curators confronting racial injustice at
American museums. We wept at the news of
John Lewis and
Ruth Bader Ginsburg. We also celebrated:
delayed school reopenings,
museum appointments, and
artist commissions. We wept, celebrated, and advanced. That cycle makes
Michael Cook's "Christ Weeps Over Lazarus," our art of the week.
NEWS OF 2008-2020 from across the USA, and around the world:
