Value of Water

Works by painters, sculptors, and media artists will be installed in bays of the nave, in various chapels, and along the walls of the Great Crossing. As interpreters of the unseen, artists will help us to see what has been there all along; to strengthen our awareness of water, and to prompt our imaginations in the contemplation of water, from wells and underground springs to surging seas and mighty rivers. With this collection of powerful presentations, there really will be water, water everywhere.

Artists include: Diane Burko, Trenton Doyle Hancock, Jenny Holzer, William Kentridge, Mark Rothko, Kiki Smith, Pat Steir, Bill Viola, Xu Bing, and others.
