Sailing Back to Byzantium
Art of Michael Galovic
MICHAEL GALOVIC
Michael Galovic’s traditional icons and religious paintings are just one small element in the world of art, a tradition thousands of years in the making. Used to decorate splendid cathedrals and modest churches alike, they are the visual representations of belief and the spiritual world that binds communities together. Michael Galovic uses a deep and sincere understanding of, and admiration for, traditional religious art, but brings to it subjects and ideas very much of his own time. It is a path that can be difficult and not without controversy, but he works with a genuine belief and a single minded determination to translate those ideas into powerful and engaging visual images. This book will reveal his work to a wider audience, bringing joy and understanding to those for whom religion and faith might be another world. But Michael is not content to rest on the success of his masterful icons, constantly taking his art into new places and forms of expression. His works reflect significant philosophical, cultural and artistic concepts, the results of an unceasing curiosity with the ways of our world.
