Restoring Art and Culture

Evolutionary Realism can be the answer to the disaster of the modern deconstruction of art and culture. All real content has been lost, there is no leading narrative, no history, no myth, no religion allowed in postmodern art, unless it is applied “ironically,” and so on. New realist artists have been developing (see Newington-Cropsey Center) but they are having problems applying content to their new/old skills. To simply try to return to the Renaissance can be stale and decadent if there is no modern cultural goal.

Realism needs to be applied not only to the past and present but to the future, theological materialism  and the projected Theoevolutionary Church can provide the relevant sacred content for Evolutionary Realism, with the new yet old narrative of  life evolving from the simple to the complex, toward the Absolute Beauty and Truth of ascending levels of Godhood. Classical tradition, figurative art, beauty as an objective, with Godhood as the goal, this can be applied to provide the sacred affirmation required for great art and culture.
