This booklet by one of the twentieth century's most incisive art historians and cultural critics is a prophetic call to artists-craftsmen, musicians, visual artists and others-in all walks of life to "weep, pray, think and work." <p/> Hans R. Rookmaaker (1922-1977), founder of the art history department and professor of the history of art at the Free University of Amsterdam, made a significant contribution to the Christian understanding of art and is well known as the author of <i>Modern Art and the Death of a Culture</i> (1970). <i>The Complete Works of Hans Rookmaaker </i> (6 vols.) was published in 2003. <br>
