Art and Spirituality on Local Public Radio

June 16, 2009 by Michael Winters

Steve Halla, local master of art and theology, recently found himself in the unenviable position of being put on public radio to talk about art and spirituality with fabric artist Penny Sisto and former Speed museum director Peter Morrin on NPR's State of Affairs.  I say unenviable only because I know I wouldn't want that pressure of being on live radio talking about something so tricky to talk about.

All of the participants had good insights, given their particular backgrounds, interests, and spiritual practices.  One challenge of such a conversation in that context is to say anything substantial without being pigeon-holed as a narrow-minded fundamentalist.  The other challenge is to say anything substantial without dwindling into a meaningless gooey spiritual-ness, but it's worth a listen.

You can listen to the program on the State of Affairs website.
