A Monastery for Mosaicists |
| |
Well not quite perhaps, but near enough.
The Centro Aletti in Rome is an international community
of artists and theologians from the Orthodox, Oriental and
Catholic Churches.
The director is the distinguished Jesuit mosaic artist Father
Marko Rupnik, best known for mosaicing a Vatican chapel
for Pope John Paul II, and commissions don’t come
much more distinguished than that, as Michelangelo would
confirm. More.....

Five Sisters Mosaic |
| |
May
23 - November, 2009
More than six thousand shards of medieval pottery will be
used to create a new thought-provoking installation at York
St Mary’s, York, England, this May.
Mosaicist Emma Biggs and artist and art critic Matthew Collings
will intricately arrange the fragmented pieces to create a
mosaic that will almost fill the entire floor space of the
church. Oil paintings will echo its beautiful, shimmering,
geometric appearance.
Entitled Five Sisters, the installation will draw
inspiration from the church and the history locked within
the 500,000 pieces of glass that make up the great 13th century
Five Sisters window at York Minster.
The innovative concept, which will see the medieval pottery
returned to its original state at the end of the installation,
is believed to be the first of its kind. More.....
