Freedom To Be Andy Warhol


Romans 6-7

At one point art was dominated by masterful rendering of recognizable themes, then a great freedom was discovered… self-expression and artists embarked on a marvelous time of art making centered in the freedom to explore outside the slavery of corrective rendering.  Great works were and are created by great artists like Monet, Pollock, Warhol, and Kappor.  However, in this freedom of self-expression lies the hideous seed of self-indulgence.  Bacon, Mapplethorpe, Serrano and Madonna often slide into this realm. 

This is what these chapters are about.  In Christ we receive freedom, total freedom to be who He created us to be.  However, we must always be aware that the seed of sin and death still live inside us and we must at all times wage a resistant fight against it. 

Jesus
