The Color of Dust

44. The Nuclear Mysticism of Christ of Dali


Listen Later

We begin a two-part series on Salvador Dali and his painting “Christ of St. John of the Cross.” We recognize that Dali was both thorny and mercurial, bringing these aspects of his life into the discussion about his 1951 painting. We also read the first fifteen stanzas of George Herbert’s poem “The Sacrifice.” Take a look at the chapter headings below to see the ground we cover.
