Getting Religion, by Archibald Motley (1891-1981)
Archibald John Motley Jr.’s Getting Religion (1948) describes a night scene in the street by using colors in the mid to dark tonal range, including blues, reds, greens, and pinks. However, those colors do not prevent the painting from generating a vibrant, lively and saturated effect. The mood created in the painting is energetic, fantastic, jazzy and poetic; it is full of dynamic, theatrical quality, a sense of joy palpable.
Otherwise sophisticated journalists and commentators regularly display minimal understanding of religion and how theological claims ought to function in public discourse.
What does it mean to 'get religion' this political season anyway?
