EPIPHANIES OF BEAUTY: ART IN A POST-CHRISTIAN CULTURE

That’s what they’re calling an amazing conference going on at Notre Dame this Thursday-Sunday. I love the title of it above, because I find it refreshing to see the phrase “post-Christian culture” asserted directly. I’ve been going around saying that we’re in a post-Christian culture for ten years now, but invariably, religious folks demur. Not sure what happened to put the folks at ND over the edge, but they’re welcome to join the ranks of us “with eyes to see.”

Anyway, the line-up of academics at this week’s event is impressive. Hopefully, there will be a lot of artists there too…and hopefully, the academic papers will be written in such a way as to be intelligible to the artists.

My talk is Friday at 11:20am

Here’s more info from the event’s web-site…

University of Notre Dame, November 18-20, 2004

“Even beyond its typically religious expressions, true art has a close affinity with the world of faith, so that, even in situations where culture and the Church are far apart, art remains a kind of bridge to religious experience.” — Pope John Paul II, Letter to Artists

Pope John Paul II addressed his 1999 Letter to Artists “to all who are passionately dedicated to the search for new ‘epiphanies’ of beauty, so that through their creative work as artists they may offer these as gifts to the world.” In using the word “epiphany,” the Holy Father drew attention to art as the manifestation, or “shining forth,” of the glorious beauty of God’s creation. Accordingly, as the pope says elsewhere in the letter, beautiful works of art serve as “a kind of bridge to religious experience,” and thus as a genuine source of moral, spiritual and cultural renewal.

The Notre Dame Center for Ethics and Culture’s fifth annual fall conference will examine the variety of ways in which the fine arts can help build a more genuinely Christian civilization in an era that is ever more deeply post-Christian in its character. Our first triennial series culminated in proposals on how to build a genuine culture of life, and last year’s conference reflected on the renewal and formation at the heart of such a culture. This conference will focus our reflection on the fine arts and their place in a culture of life.

6:00-7:15 p.m. Dinner

7:30-9:00 p.m. Lecture-Concert: Olivier Messiaen’s Visions de l’Amen

Pianists: Hyesook Kim, Calvin College

Stephane Lemelin, University of Ottawa

Lecturer: Stephen Schloesser, Boston College

Location: Annenberg Auditorium

Olivier Messiaen, one of the greatest composers of the twentieth century, wrote his seven meditations on the word “Amen” for two pianos in 1943 in Nazi-occupied Paris. His inspiration for the piece came from a book given him by his brother entitled Words of God by the 19th century Catholic Revivalist writer Ernest Hello. “Amen” is the final “word,” of course — but it is also the beginning word of creation. In the darkest hours of the twentieth century, then, Messiaen wrote this brilliant work — thunderous in its lower ranges and dazzling in its upper — about the origins and ends of the created world.

The concert will be preceded by a half-hour lecture by Stephen Schloesser, a professor in Boston College’s History Department, laying out Messiaen’s connections to French Catholic Revivalism in particular and to the Symbolist movement in general. Many listeners find Messiaen’s music initially difficult to grasp, and it is hoped that this lecture will make this piece much more accessible to audience members who are not already acquainted with his work. One thing is certain: those who watch and hear these live performers will be astonished by the sheer physical stamina required to produce such passionate sounds.

9:00 p.m. Reception

9:30 p.m. Musical Performance: Mark Lang and Nadina Bembic

Location: LaFortune Ballroom

Featuring songs from ND alumnus Mark Lang’s debut folk-rock album Simplicity. Nadina Bembic’s debut album is due out in December. Demo copies will be available for sale. This performance is free and open to the public, and undergraduates in particular are encouraged to attend.
