Art & spirtuality: Exploring ‘The Pieta’

Posted on 23 March 2011.

the pieta

The Pieta by Michelangelo.

St. Alban’s Episcopal Church in Davidson will host a Lenten media program Sunday night, March 27, with artist Tom Schulz exploring Michelangelo’s “Pieta.”

The program begins at 7 p.m. at St. Alban’s, 301 Caldwell Lane, off Concord Road.

Mr. Schulz will discuss the two “Pietas” Michelangelo created during his lifetime. The artist received his M.F.A from Tufts University and the School of the Museum of Fine Art, Boston. He has taught at Harvard University Summer School, Clark University and the School of the Museum of Fine Art.

With his wife Sheila Ennis, he has developed a unique Faith and Art curriculum. Permanent installations and collections include Rockefeller Stone Barns, New Britain Museum of American Art and the Tryon Palace.

For more information about the artist and his work, please visit Ennisart.net, Empathinc.com or Empathinc.blogspot.com.

This event is offered by St. Alban’s Spirituality and the Arts Initiative, and is free and open to the public.
