100 Artists See God

July 10-October 2, 2005

Whether or not one believes in God, whether we describe ourselves as theists, atheists or even anti-theists, we all live in a world that is profoundly influenced by concepts of God. 100 Artists See God brings this topic to the forefront of the artistic debate and acknowledges the prevalence of religion and spirituality in contemporary art, culture and politics both in the United States and abroad. In an effort to promote discourse of diverse ideas, the exhibition asks such questions as: How do contemporary artists see God? How, and why, might the point of view of artists reinforce-or stand in contrast to-that of the general public? And, what comfort or answers do we all seek in spiritual undertakings of varying kinds?

100 Artists See God was a traveling exhibition organized and circulated by Independent Curators International (ICI), New York. The guest co-curators are John Baldessari and Meg Cranston.
