Imitation of Christ
William E. JonesAllegra PesentiHammer Museum Staff1 editions
William E. Jones project was inspired by a photograph of a wounded guerrilla fighter taken by Pedro Meyer in Nicaragua in the early 1980s. The exhibition also asks two separate questions - How is it possible to make an image of revolution? How is it possible to make a religious image? - and suggests that they have profound connections. Imitation of Christ encompasses a diverse range of objects, including Renaissance and Baroque prints and drawings, documentary photographs, Latin American art, and rare books.
