In this conversation, Dr. Sandra Glahn and Dr. Lynn Cohick are joined by guest Jazmine Sánchez to discuss various art media on the Visual Museum of Women and Christianity website. They explore mosaics, frescoes, sculptures, and paintings, highlighting their historical significance and unique characteristics. Jazmine shares her favorite artists, including Giotto and Michelangelo, and discusses notable artworks such as the Scrovegni Chapel frescoes and the Pieta sculpture. The conversation also delves into the use of art in the early church, the symbolism of doors in art, and the depiction of Mary in different traditions.

Key Takeaways: 
  • Different art media, such as mosaics, frescoes, sculptures, and paintings, offer unique insights into history, spirituality, and culture.
  • Artists like Giotto and Michelangelo have made significant contributions to the world of art, with their works still admired and studied today.
  • The use of art in the early church, including catacombs and altarpieces, served as a means of worship, storytelling, and identification for believers.
  • Depictions of Mary and God the Father in art can vary based on periods and religious traditions.
  • Art has the power to evoke emotions, create connections, and provide a sense of worship and spirituality. 

Visual Museum of Women in Christianity

The purpose of this collaborative project is to create a curated, permanent visual exhibit of women in the history, ministry, and piety of early, Byzantine, and medieval Christianity that will be available online for researchers, educators, and interested laypersons.

The goal of this multi-year project is to make the visual record of women in ministry and leadership available free of charge and unencumbered by permission requirements, and to include short teaching elements to guide the audience through the constitutive and pivotal role of women throughout Christian history.

Together with the visual story, the accompanying narrative will make it possible for patrons to learn about women throughout history and across the globe and their unique contributions to the life and faith of the church…

A history that remains mostly untold.
