The Artistic Vision
Winfield Bevins: Quiet Renaissance
In this episode of The Artistic Vision, we welcome artist, author, and creative leader Winfield Bevins to discuss his inspiring artistic practice and introduce CREO Arts, the organization he directs. Winfield shares about the quiet renaissance of the arts in the church, highlighting a global movement of Christian artists, creative communities, and faith-inspired expression. With a passion for mission, spiritual formation, and the intersection of faith and art, Winfield offers wisdom and encouragement for artists in the Church today. Don't miss this powerful conversation made for the Christian art community and creative believers everywhere!
Winfield Bevins is an internationally recognized author, artist, and the founding director of Creo Arts (http://www.creoarts.org/), which is a non-profit that exists to bring beauty, goodness, and truth to the world through the arts. Winfield is also artist-in-residence at Asbury Theological Seminary. He is the author of several books, including Liturgical Mission: The Work of the People for the Sake of the World, Ever Ancient Ever New: The Allure of Liturgy for a New Generation, and Marks of a Movement. As an artist, he describes his artwork as “modern inconography” because it explores the intersection where the past and the present meet through sacred art. He believes that we need new forms and expressions of ancient truths to speak to a new generation, that are connected to those who have gone before us, drawing fresh inspiration from the past for our faith for today through art. As an artist, he hopes that his art will invite viewers to slow down and pray to God who is “ever ancient, ever new.”
