VOTIVE CATALOGUE
Both the Adam Art Gallery and Dunedin Public Art Gallery are pleased to present Votive: sacred and ecstatic bodies, an exhibition that both examines and questions certain representations, politics and effects of organised Christianity, particularly Catholicism. Votive indicates the ongoing connectivity between art and religion, doctrine and lived experience; it also plays on the tensions that exist between them.
