| description | While throughout its two-thousand-year history the Catholic Church has always used the various arts to convey the message of Jesus Christ to the people, the sacred art of the 20th century is not very well known today. One of the reasons for this absence is the transition from the fascination with avant-garde sacred art that took place in the ecclesiastical world after World War II to the interest in the conservation of the historical heritage in the last decades of the 20th century. This article reviews the careers of six promoters of sacred art in Spain -Josep Torrás, Luis Almarcha, Joan Ferrando Roig, Alfonso Roig, José Manuel de Aguilar and Juan Plazaola- who during the central decades of the 20th century promoted the decorative arts and art dedicated to divine worship, convinced that the mysteries of the Christian faith must be sensitively translated through the genius of artists. |

One of the reasons for this absence is the transition from the fascination with avant-garde sacred art that took place in the ecclesiastical world after World War II to the interest in the conservation of the historical heritage in the last decades of the 20th century. This article reviews the careers of six promoters of sacred art in Spain -Josep Torrás, Luis Almarcha, Joan Ferrando Roig, Alfonso Roig, José Manuel de Aguilar and Juan Plazaola- who during the central decades of the 20th century promoted the decorative arts and art dedicated to divine worship, convinced that the mysteries of the Christian faith must be sensitively translated through the genius of artists. Aunque a lo largo de su bimilenaria historia la Iglesia católica siempre utilizó las distintas artes para transmitir a los pueblos el mensaje de Jesucristo, el arte sacro del siglo XX no es demasiado conocido en la actualidad. Una de las razones de esta ausencia es el tránsito que se produjo desde la fascinación por el arte sacro de vanguardia que se dio en el mundo eclesial tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial al interés por la conservación del patrimonio histórico en las últimas décadas del siglo XX. Este artículo repasa las trayectorias de siete promotores del arte sacro en España —Josep Torrás, Manuel Trens, Luis Almarcha, Joan Ferrando Roig, Alfonso Roig, José Manuel de Aguilar y Juan Plazaola— que durante las décadas centrales del siglo XX fomentaron las artes decorativas y el arte dedicado al culto divino, convencidos de que los misterios de la fe cristiana han de ser traducidos de manera sensible a través del genio de los artistas. Embora ao longo de seus dois mil anos de história a Igreja Católica sempre tenha usado as várias artes para transmitir a mensagem de Jesus Cristo ao povo, a arte sacra do século XX não é muito conhecida atualmente. Um dos motivos para essa ausência é a transição do fascínio pela arte sacra de vanguarda que ocorreu no mundo eclesiástico após a Segunda Guerra Mundial para o interesse na conservação do patrimônio histórico nas últimas décadas do século XX. Este artigo analisa as carreiras de sete promotores da arte sacra na Espanha - Josep Torrás, Manuel Trens, Luis Almarcha, Joan Ferrando Roig, Alfonso Roig, José Manuel de Aguilar e Juan Plazaola - que, durante as décadas centrais do século XX, promoveram as artes decorativas e a arte dedicada ao culto divino, convencidos de que os mistérios da fé cristã devem ser traduzidos com sensibilidade por meio do gênio dos artistas. 2023-11-30 2024-10-10T02:32:04Z 2024-10-10T02:32:04Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85 https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/1583 10.54104/nodo.v18n35.1583 https://repositorio.uan.edu.co/handle/123456789/10721 spa https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/1583/1367 Derechos de autor 2023 Esteban Fernández-Cobián https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2 application/pdf UNIVERSIDAD ANTONIO NARIÑO REVISTA NODO; Vol. 18 Núm. 35 (2023); 39-49 2346-092X 1909-3888 10.54104/nodo.v18n35 |
