The Downfall of Christian Art First, I'd like to thanks Hans-Georg for sending me the link that inspired this post.
An art critic I'm not, but I think you'll see what I'm getting at. We'll start with Christian art in the Dark Ages-
I'd hang this in my living room...
a hundred years later-
Classic...
Still sweet...
... now fifty years later-
Good, but does Jesus need to rub his nipple over a nice meal of sheep head?
Looks like Nikolay Gay forgot half the disciples here...
One Jesus painting, hold the quality...

I want a "With you Always" shot of Jesus bringing joy to the middle of a bar fight.
Do you think the Orthodox Church would count those "with you always" drawings as icons? It could bring a ton of joy to a serbian French Horn player in times of spiritual crisis. "Jesus and spittle are with you always". Unbelievable!
