Christians, in ever increasing numbers, are leaving their monastic foxholes and showing up at such diverse places as Bruce Springsteen concerts and mainstream cinemas. While cautioning against voyeurism and mindless consumption of popular art, William D. Romanowski believes that this is a healthy development. Eyes Wide Open is an attempt to provide biblical guidance for believing artists and patrons who realize there is more for us to do than produce and pander to sanitized knock-offs of mainstream art. It?s about doing art with discernment. Through 10 chapters of careful analysis he gives us the tools we so sorely need to honor God in this important arena. A terrific bonus is his 6 page Matrix (questionnaire) for evaluating movies and other art works--great for group discussions.
