nd the Sacred Today. A dialogue between Rupert Sheldrake & Mark Vernon
About this episode
Does art need to have a sacred dimension to be art at all? What are the sources of inspiration?
In this dialogue, which is the 102nd in the series, Rupert Sheldrake and Mark Vernon, explore how meaning and beauty, truth and connection might be manifested in the arts.
What is the role of reverence and empathy, place and intelligence? Conversely, what is lost when art loses a reference beyond the human and mechanical world?
If art energizes the human spirit, encourages awareness, and revitalises symbols, how might it speak to us today of what it is be human and to live in a more than human world?
The conversation took place in The Garrison Chapel, Chelsea, and was organised by The King’s Foundation.
