Sweet is the light

Art, Architecture, Theology

by Lydia Salviucci Insolera and Andrea Dall'Asta SJ
Artemide editions, 2019

Light, concrete and intangible, allows us to see reality in its singularity, creating relationships, giving depth to volumes, but it is also at the origin of the experience of the divine that illuminates and transfigures human history. In an interdisciplinary path between art/architecture, philosophy/science, theology/liturgy, the book, which comes from a meeting held at the Pontifical Gregorian University, focuses on some challenges of great topicality for contemporary man.

 

Essays by: Andrea Dall'Asta; Gabriele Gionti; Roberto Diodato; Jean-Pierre Sonnet; Giuseppe Midili; Maria Giovanna Muzj; Agostino De Rosa; Beatriz Laguillo Gutiérrez; Giuseppe Lanci; Lydia Salviucci Insolera; Marcello Fagiolo; César A. Suarez Cajamarca; Franco Purini.
