Abstract
It is the purpose of this study (1) to investigate various examples of paintings and sculptures in which the artist claimed to have revealed himself or to have had a spiritual experience in the creation of the work; (2) to present several select statements by artists and theologians who claim revelation is the dynamic, sustaining force in all creation; (3) to correlate art and religion, emphasizing that the common thread which underlies them both is revelation.
