Heal Me!

Heal Me! centers on the Gospel Luke, which was written by a physician and focuses on God power to restore us to spiritually, mental and physicial health. Heal Me! contains one hundred and thirty illustrations providing a thumbnail guide symbolizing a passage of Scripture. These works are intended to be a visual guide through the verses and to assist in interpretation and internalization.  Ms. Breitenberg's art is a composite of the old and new, the broken and whole, the destroyed and restored, the diminished and disdained withthe delighted and desired. Look closer and observe to find a new vision for an ancient text, awaiting an imagination ready for adventure. For the past four decades, Anita Breitenberg has illustrated versus of Scripture and seeks to broaden the appeal of contemporary Christian art to a wider and diversified audience and present it in a radically provocative manner. Her works have been exhibited in The Museum of Bibical Art in Manhattan, Yale University and the Washington National Cathedral, and are in the permanent collection of the Museum of Bibical Art in Dallas, Texas and Catholic University. Her art was reviewed in the New York Times and appeared on the cover of Commonweal Magazine.
