Native American Madonnas by Fr. John Giuliani








Fr. Giuliani has produced an astounding number of Madonna representations inspired by Native American culture and art.
Icons are an expression of the mysteries of the incarnation, the divine becoming human. The key to access the full empowerment of the icon is to surrender to its contemplation, allowing the soul to open up to the revealed Christian mysteries. Fr. Giuliani expanded the traditional rules of iconography to reach out to the Native Americans whose culture Christian arts had left unexplored.
