The End

I established this blog in 2008 as a platform to support the publication of my book, God in the Gallery, and to extend my investigation of ideas related to art, theology, and ethics.  On July 18 I began a new phase of this investigation when I joined the Miami-based studio of Enrique Martínez Celaya as director. After fifteen years as a museum curator and art history professor, the time has come to move into the studio and the day-to-day practice of an artist who has exerted a powerful influence on my work for over a decade.  

Although this blog will cease to be an active part of my work, I will remain a presence through Facebook and Twitter, athough how this presence will be manifest will emerge only in the coming months.

I appreciate those who followed this blog and took the ideas of its author seriously.

I am sorry to see this blog go, but thank you for the many thoughtful posts over the last few years. Even though I often lacked the context (or the background scholarship) to fully comprehend your posts, it was always enjoyable to read and try to understand more about the subjects upon which you wrote. It was unusual not to come away with at least one new insight or topic for consideration from a long post.

Good luck on the new phase of your career; I believe that the collaboration will bring many good things to you, the artist and studio, and the world.

Dan, I'm sorry to see the end of the blog (I enjoyed reading it very much), but it sounds like you're off to an exciting new beginning! Best of luck with the studio, and I'll look forward to meeting you someday. One last thing: Do you have another book coming out soon? I seem to recall a collaboration of sorts with John Dyrness, Theologian of Culture.
