This book illuminates the interconnections between politics and
religion through the lens of artistic production, exploring how art
inspired by religion functioned as a form of resistance, directed
against both Romanian national communism (1960-1989) and, latterly,
consumerist society and its global market. It investigates the
critical, tactical and subversive employments of religious motifs
and themes in contemporary art pieces that confront the religious
'affair' in post-communist Romania. In doing so, it addresses a key
gap in previous scholarship, which has paid little attention to the
relationship between religious art and political resistance in
communist Central and South-East Europe.
