8th Catholic Arts Biennial /

The Center is pleased to announce the 8th Catholic Arts Biennial is now on view through October 29, 2021. Established in 2001 by the late Nathan Cochran, O.S.B., this international biennial juried exhibition features contemporary artists whose work explores Christian themes. 

Visitors are invited to view the Biennial's catalog and listen to a lecture offered by 2021 Biennial juror, Mr. David Brinker, Director of the Museum of Contemporary Religious Art. In Brinker addresses what makes art 'Catholic', while also exploring ways the Church can receive from the contemporary art world, bringing pieces from MOCRA's permanent collection in conversation with works from the Biennial.
