Beschreibung:
Maria Fee is an artist with an M.F.A. in Painting, M.A. in Theology, and a Ph.D. in Theology and Culture, Fuller Seminary. As an adjunct professor, she assists seminarians' negotiations of theological observations through a creative medium. Maria's own art practice explores ideas of fragmentation, metizaje (cultural mixing), alienation, and hospitality.
The book argues that the projects of Chicago artist Theaster Gates are theological sites, places to encounter God and his truth concerning place, people, and things. By exploring Gates's practices, attention is drawn to God's own work of care, reconciliation, and vivification. Hence, Gates' hospitality points to God's hospitality.
