UPCOMING EXHIBITIONS Opening August 20
PATHWAYS TO STABLE HOUSING
Until January 15, 2012
In a partnership with the Alliance to End Homeless- ness, Loyola’s Center for Ur- ban Research and Learning and photographer Noah Addis have organized 25 images depicting individu- als moving from home- lessness to housing. The photographs, along with interviews with those who have made the transition, challenge our predominate stereotyping of people we see on the street and docu- ment a program through which hope for a new and positive life is fulfilled.
HOLINESS AND
THE FEMININE SPIRIT: THE ART OF JANET McKENZIE
Until October 23 Vermont artist Janet McKenzie creates paintings
that celebrate people, particu- larly African Americans and
women. In 1999, her painting Jesus of the People won the National Catholic Reporter’s
competition for a new image of Jesus. McKenzie subsequently received worldwide attention,
both negative and positive, for her unconventional interpreta-
tion. Jesus of the People and 20 other works by McKenzie will
be included in this exhibition, organized by the Haggerty
Museum of Art at Marquette University.

BACK TO THE BEGIN- NING—INSCRIBING THE DIVINE: THE ST. JOHN’S BIBLE
Until October 23
For the first 1,500 years of its production, every copy of the Bible was handwrit- ten—some magnificently illuminated with gold leaf and paint. Contemporary calligrapher and illuminator Donald Jackson revived the tradition in 2000 to produce a Bible for the Benedictine monks of St. John’s Abbey in Minnesota, bringing a mod- ernist aesthetic to a medieval practice. LUMA will exhibit 13 bifolia from the books of Genesis, Psalms, and Kings, including the illumination of the seven days of creation.
