1Max Gleason, Lovett Alum class of 1998, believes art can touch the Divine. For thousands of years, artists have pointed us toward the "Transcendent Other" through marks, models, songs, and symbols. Max has also chased a glimpse of Divinity for much of his artistic career. Then, four years ago, something happened that split his world wide open-as a human and an artist. On October 25, 2019, his wife and two young children were killed by a suicidal motorist. With this event, his relationship to spirituality became immediate and painfully visceral. He was forced to reckon with the biggest existential questions:
What happens when we die?
Why are we here in the first place?
Does free will exist, or is everything predestined?
As a lifelong artist, Max turned to painting to help him process this tragedy, creating several pieces honoring the life and passing of his family.
