ABSTRACT
Historically, art has played an important role in religion and other spiritual lifestyles and cultures, not only aesthetically or symbolically, but also as a form of communication and interpretation of belief systems and values. It demonstrates the diversity and wonder of human nature, and the importance for humanity to be creative and communicate through art. This is a common ground for all cultures and belief systems. Studying and celebrating art’s contribution to religion and culture is helpful to any person interested in art, in order to understand its power and descent through the ages.
