MISSION
The Studio for Art, Faith & History is based in the historic monastery of San Paolo located along the cliff's edge of the ancient Umbrian town of Orvieto. The Studio operates in conjunction with the Gordon-in-Orvieto semester program in the arts and humanities administered by Gordon College's Global Education Office.
The Studio for Art, Faith & History sponsors new work in the visual and performing arts, as well as hosting conferences, seminars, retreats and workshops, often in partnership with other civic, cultural, educational and faith-based organizations, both local and international.
The mission of the Studio for Art, Faith & History is to help
- re-connect Faith with History, by creatively adapting the practices and disciplines of the historic church to contemporary faith and community life
- re-connect Art with Faith, by exploring the role of the arts in catechesis, theological reflection and spiritual formation as well as in liturgy and private devotion
- re-connect Art with History, by engaging contemporary artists not only with the themes and narratives of historic Christian tradition but with the media and modes of production used to create the rich heritage of sacred art and drama particularly in Italy.
