Questions on the Catholic Imagination(s): Screening of a Work in Progress

What creates the unlikely pairing of Cardinal Timothy Dolan and artist Andres Serrano? One answer is “the Catholic imagination”—a deep-rooted sensibility shaped by the symbols, images, and rites that incarnate Catholicism’s beliefs and traditions. But does a distinctive Catholic imagination exist? Or are there varieties of Catholic imaginations?

In an original documentary in production, Duffy Fellow Henry Sullivan, FCRH ‘24, explores these questions with a cast of believers and artists that includes Cardinal Dolan and Serrano, along with Julia Yost (First Things), and Angela O’Donnell, associate director, Curran Center for American Catholic Studies, among others.

A conversation with the filmmaker and audience feedback will follow the screening.

Registration is required.
