Patron of the Arts

I was browsing through various blogs and stumbled upon this interview with a screenwriter/author/professor, Barbara Nicolosi. The interview is quite insightful, and actually comes from a Catholic point of view of the arts -- particularly that of media, Hollywood, and the like. I typically will find stuff like this from the Protestant point of view - which I also come from - and actually a lot of her opinions about the topic resonate with my own. Check it out:

Yes, it's long, but absolutely worth the read!

"Pope John Paul II says in his “Letter to Artists” that the way to save the soul of an artist is that they really commit themselves to beauty. Because if you find beauty you will find God. Real beauty."
