Drawing upon the best modern biblical scholarship, Lawrence Cunningham, author of Saint Francis of Assisi and The Meaning of Saints, first presents the story of Mary as recounted in the Bible and the early traditions of the Church. He then sketches the devotional, artistic, and cultural traditions that have grown up around the person of Mary over the centuries. Mother of God concludes with an appraisal of the role of Mary in Christian life and her significance as a symbol of womanhood. The breathtaking contemporary photographs by Nicolas Sapieha, whose work as a photojournalist and art photographer has gained him an international reputation, include key religious celebrations in Italy, Portugal, Poland, Mexico, France, and elsewhere. These striking contemporary portraits complement the rich, varied selection of art that has honored Mary throughout the centuries. This beautiful volume also offers a remarkably insightful preface by novelist Mary Gordon, presents traditional prayers, feast days, titles, and shrines, and provides an annotated bibliography for further reading. Mother of God is a lavish account, in words and images, of the crucial role Mary plays in the consciousness of both the Church and Western civilization. It will be treasured as a resplendent book of art and welcomed as a thoughtful and inspiring celebration of a vibrant, historically fascinating, life~affirming part of our heritage.

OVERSIZE! Additional shipping charges may be requested for international & priority orders. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "In the early 1990s the design and creation of the Central Garden at the Getty Center were entrusted to the distinguished contemporary visual artist Robert Irwin. Irwin-a member of California's 'light and space' movement-was an unexpected choice for this major commission, and his work has aroused intense interest in the art world and among gardening enthusiasts and visitors to the Getty Center. In Robert Irwin Getty Garden, Lawrence Weschler offers a lively account of the creation of what Irwin has playfully termed 'a sculpture in the form of a garden aspiring to be art.' Weschler's narrative is followed by a transcript of conversations in which he and Irwin, in a series of walks through the garden, discuss in detail the decisions, both philosophical and practical, that shaped the making of this major art work in Southern California. The book contains more than one hundred colour illustrations, many of them specially commissioned from photographer Becky Cohen. The photographs capture the stunning variety of colors and textures of the plant forms selected by Irwin. They also reveal the care and precision that went into the creation of each element of the garden environment, from the handrails and lighting fixtures to the huge azalea rings and waterfall that make a visit to the Getty Central Garden an unusually thought-provoking experience. Robert Irwin has exhibited widely in galleries and museums in North America and abroad. / Lawrence Weschler teaches at Columbia University and Sarah Lawrence College and has been a staff writer at The New Yorker since 1981. His ten books include Seeing Is Forgetting the Name of the Thing One Sees: A Life of Contemporary Artist Robert Irwin and Mr. Wilson's Cabinet of Wonder. Becky Cohen is an artist/photographer." - Publisher. Size: 4to. Collectible.
