THEME ISSUE: THE SACRED IN THE CITY

  • 1.  THEME ISSUE: THE SACRED IN THE CITY

    Posted 03-09-2014 12:42 PM
    This message has been cross posted to the following Discussion Forums: Committee on Design and Interfaith Forum on Religion, Art, & Architecture .
    -------------------------------------------
    Faith & Form magazine is now preparing a special theme The Sacred in the City. For the first time in human history, more people on the planet are living in urban areas than in rural places. What is the impact on sacred architecture and art? How do religious environments accommodate the urban-based congregation? How do places for worship adjust with increasing urban density, or changing neighborhoods in the city? Where do we find evidence of the sacred in the city?
    Please send projects (built or unbuilt), article ideas, art work, or any other item that you think would fit the theme of this special issue. Send your ideas and/or questions to: mcrosbie@faithandform.com
