Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), perhaps the most beloved artist in the world, was motivated by a deep spiritual vision, first expressed in his ambition to become a missionary and minister, and later, after his decisive break with organized religion, through his art. In art he found a new way to express his solidarity and compassion for humanity, and to awaken people to the sacred depths of reality. Though virtually nobody in his own lifetime understood his intentions or appreciated his work, van Gogh poured out his convictions in letters to his brother Theo. Drawing largely on these letters, examples of his drawings, and her own reflections on the interplay between his life, his spiritual vision, and his art, Berry draws a moving portrait of van Gogh as a spiritual seeker and teacher for our time.
