Richard Pousette-Dart

0/5 ( ratings)

The American artist Richard Pousette-Dart is best known as an Abstract Expressionist painter of spiritual works. He equated art with religion, stating that the greater the art, the more religious. His life-long devotion to the sacred in art lies behind his portal Cathedral, which is set in the facade of the Mary Fendrich Hulman Pavilion of the Indianapolis Museum of Art. This bronze door was inspired by his 1978-80 painting of the same name, a black-and-white work consisting of a wide variety of forms and symbols, many of which seem to have mythological and religious origins.
