Artistic Creativity in Contemporary Romanian Iconography

Summary/Abstract: We will briefly outline the history of the icon as artistic creation and analyze a series of contemporary icons designed by various Romanian artists, who are conspicuous for their attempts to give the Orthodox tradition a new look at style and art.
