Topics: Art
Two Classics
Even after that bitter end, I am sure: Dostoevsky and Austen are like each other.
·
Shannon McDermott
An Acquittal
One of the curious facts about art is that even the worst ideas are, very occasionally, right.
·
Shannon McDermott
Happiness is an Aesthetic
Happiness also is an aesthetic.
·
Shannon McDermott
The Decision of Meaning
A story stands as it was created.
·
Shannon McDermott
An Icon of Melodrama
If you consider the facts from a certain distance – objectively, even analytically – you would have to conclude that the image of a woman tied to the railroad tracks is grim.
·
Shannon McDermott
The Burden of Belief
The dynamic of offering people fiction that entangles with their convictions is two-fold. You may well draw them to your story. But they will come with the burden of belief.
·
Shannon McDermott
Not Cinema, but Movies
I do not exactly come to praise Marvel, but neither do I come to bury it.
·
Shannon McDermott
The Hallmark of a Snob
Let me tell you what a snob is.

Licking the Chocolate Off Poison Pills: A Comment on Cultural Engagement
Is there any potential risk in enjoying arts and popular culture? Is anything out there poison to us? How should we react to things we enjoy but know are harmful to us?
·
Travis Perry
Great Art And Story
Because fiction is first a form of communication, I think stories should pay attention to what Scripture says about our correspondence with one another.
·
Rebecca LuElla Miller
Art Under Negotiation
The early Christians made their own negotiations with art in a pre-Christian culture.
·
Shannon McDermott
Leaving Michael Jackson
We have begun – too late, but better than never – our cultural reckoning of the fact that the King of Pop was a monster.
·
Shannon McDermott
Theology And Art: Are They Complementary?
For too many bored or otherwise restless and relevance-seeking evangelicals, fidelity to the arts has overtaken fidelity to Scripture.
·
Rebecca LuElla Miller
Accidents of Unexpected Creation
Sometimes accidents or unexpected patterns help create visual art or produce plot twists in a story. But can this sort of accident apply to the entire universe?
·
Travis Perry
Seriously, Now
“Serious” is more a description than a judgment, more an attribute than a virtue or a vice.
·
Shannon McDermott
Keeping the Edge Sharp
The word “edgy” is not a friendly word. After all, what has edges? Knives, scalpels, axes. The sharper the edge, the better the cutting tool. Something “edgy” divides and separates into those who dig it and those who don’t. It’s challenging and often uncomfortable, rewarding for some and repulsive to others.
·
Mark Carver
“Better” Christian Entertainment
Does better artistic quality mean better Christian entertainment?
·
Mark Carver
Madeleine L’Engle on ‘Bad Religion’
The equation between bad religion and bad art is false.
