Kyrie Eleison - exhibition by Michael Galovic

Destruction, beauty and hope in the brand new body of work by

Michael Galovic

Initially inspired by the September 11 event, these artworks transcend one single event and refer to all destruction done by man to his fellow humans.

The imagery of graphic ruination is juxtaposed and intertwined with the solemn beauty of medieval art of icons and frescoes. Through depictions of the Crucifixion, Deposition from the Cross, Lamentation, the artist reminds us of the death of The Son of Man while paying tribute to the timeless beauty of the sacred art.

The innate propensity of mankind for harm and devastation may seem hopeless for the future of our kind.

The title of this most unusual series of artworks with its last piece gives us an answer.

The exhibition opening will be held Wednesday 11 March at 6pm at the Australian Centre for Christianity & Culture. Register here
