Envisioning Howard Finster: The Religion and Art of a Stranger from Another World Paperback - 2015
by Norman J. Girardot
From the jacket flap
"Utilizing an original religious-studies perspective, Girardot opens up the scholarship on the visionary image maker who thrust the imagination into uncomfortable spiritual acrobatics and countercultural mythological intuition."--David Morgan, Professor of Religious Studies, Duke University, and author of The Embodied Eye: Religious Visual Culture and the Social Life of Feeling
"Envisioning Howard Finster is a mythological tale rooted in serious and extensive scholarship that greatly enriches our knowledge of Finster and his context in late twentieth-century American culture."--Colin Rhodes, author of Outsider Art: Spontaneous Alternatives
"Introducing astute comparisons between Finster and other artists, spiritual leaders, and historical figures, Girardot raises timely, provocative questions regarding Finster's place in the art world, Southern evangelical Protestantism, popular culture, and American history."--Tom Patterson, freelance writer, independent curator, author of Howard Finster: Stranger from Another World and St. EOM in the Land of Pasaquan
