Refractions

New link in the sidebar: Refractions, by Makoto Fujimura. I'm not very familiar with Fujimura's theology or the teachings of his pastor, Tim Keller, but I'm intrigued by the organization he began. The International Arts Movement, while not an explicity Christian group, strives to create art the "way it ought to be".

From the IAM website:
"Noted critic and artist Robert Kushner has written about IAM founder Makoto Fujimura's art, 'The idea of forging a new kind of art, about hope, healing, redemption, refuge, while maintaining visual sophistication and intellectual integrity is a growing movement, one which finds Fujimura's work at the vanguard.' International Arts Movement is an outgrowth of this 'forging of a new kind of art' and desires to collaborate with other influencers, empowering their work and growth."
