        Beautiful photography in black and white and in color. I especially love the bird series, the trees and the meadow series that she created.

        I merely went to see the old scrolls and fragments, but I got so much more. The St. John's Bible blew me away. No photo does it justice. Stunning. Beautiful in its own right, it surprised me in an art form we see so little. What a great find! Don't miss it. The old manuscripts convey the depth and history of many cultures that have carried art and scripture next to our ancestors' bosoms so that they could pass down these torches of civilization to us. I was in awe; when it was time to go, I couldn't. I turned around and went through the exhibit again. Don't miss the Syriac Peshitta and Coptic manuscripts nor the steps involved in getting European versions to the printing press. Beyond the thrill of the artwork and the profundity of this exhibition's message, I walked away, eventually, with a sense of the piety from a couple millennia. Many thanks to Phoenix Art Museum and the collectors who lent us this view extending from ancient Mesopotamia to the dazzle of post-modern illumination. Collapse
